Citric Acid 5% – C₆H₈O₇

Product Overview

This 5% w/w aqueous solution of citric acid offers a mild yet effective acidic medium ideal for pH adjustment, cleaning, and buffering applications. Citric acid is a naturally occurring, biodegradable organic acid commonly used in food, pharmaceutical, and industrial formulations. This clear, water-like solution is well-suited for use in settings that require gentle acidification without harsh corrosive action, offering excellent chelating and descaling properties in both lab and production environments.
