fast delivery110-17-8 good supplier Offer Fumaric Acid
A colorless crystalline solid. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit spread to the environment. Combustible, though may be difficult to ignite. Used to make paints and plastics, in food processing and preservation, and for other uses.
Fumaric Acid is an acidulant that is a nonhygroscopic, strong acid of poor solubility. it has a solubility of 0.63 g in 100 ml of distilled water at 25°c. it dissolves slowly in cold water, but if mixed with dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate its solubility improves. the solubility rate also increases with smaller particle size. a quantity of 0.317 kg of can replace 0.453 kg of citric acid. it is used in dry mixes such as desserts, pie fillings, and candy. it is used in dry bever- age mixes because it is storage stable, free flowing, and nonhygro- scopic. it functions as a synergistic antioxidant with bha and bht in oiland lard-base products. in gelatin desserts, it improves the flavor stability and increases shelf life and gel strength.
fumaric acid is used to add fragrance to products and to decrease product pH. It can also help keep the pH stable. It is generally used in cleansers. Fumaric acid is naturally occurring in plants, such as lichen and Iceland moss, and in animals. For example, the skin produces fumaric acid when exposed to light. It can also F be synthetically manufactured.
Properties:
White odorless powder or crystalline solid particles, with speical sourness that is as strong as 1.5 times of citric acid. It is soluble in ethanol (5.76g/100g,30℃), slightly soluble in water (0.63g/100ml,25℃) and in ether, and very slightly soluble in chloroform. It has no hygroscopicity, and will sublime at 200℃. Boiling point: 290℃ (decompose). It will turn to maleic anhydride at 230℃, and will generate DL-malic acid if boiled with water.

Fumaric acid is used as a food additive and acid regulator. It is used in the production of polyester resins and polyhydric alcohols. It is also used as a mordant for dyes, paint additives, coating additives, plasticizers, processing aids and specific to petroleum production. Further, it is used in dentifrices as a stain remover and to make other chemicals. In addition to this, it is used in rosin esters, drying oils, printing inks and flavoring agent.
