RM35091 Potassium citrate monohydrate
RM35090 Potassium citrate anhydrous
Formula K3(C6H5O7).XH20(X=0,1)
Character: Tripotassium citrate occurs as transparent crystals or a white, granular powder. It is an odourless substance with a cooling, salty taste. It is slightly deliquescent when exposed to moist air, freely soluble in water and almost insoluble in ethanol (96 %). In contrary to other potassium salts, it is less bitter and thus can be used at higher concentration levels.
Applications:
♦Tripotassium citrate is used in foods, beverages, and technical applications as buffering, sequestering or emulsifying agent. It usually replaces trisodium citrate whenever a low sodium content is desired.
♦In pharmaceuticals it is used as potassium source and as active ingredient to treat urinary duct stones. When added to oral care products, tripotassium citrate is the active ingredient to reduce the sensitivity of the teeth.
