Product Information
Product Nature
Physical Properties:
· Appearance: White, clean crystalline powder or granules.
· Solubility: Soluble in water, practically insoluble in ethanol.
· Density: Approx. 2.20 g/cm³.Chemical & Functional Properties:
· Thermal Instability: Begins to decompose slowly around 50°C and decomposes completely to sodium carbonate, water, and carbon dioxide at 270°C. This is the basis for its use as a leavening agent.
· Reaction with Acids: Reacts rapidly with acidic components in food (e.g., citric acid, tartaric acid, yogurt, vinegar) to produce carbon dioxide gas, causing dough or batter to rise.
· Weak Alkalinity: Aqueous solution is weakly alkaline (pH ~8.3 for 0.8% solution), useful for neutralizing excess acidity and adjusting pH in food.
· Mild Abrasiveness: Its fine particles provide mild abrasive action, suitable for personal care applications.
Product Usage
Food Processing (Primary Application):
· Leavening Agent: Used in baked and fried goods like pastries, cookies, cakes, bread, steamed buns, and youtiao (fried dough sticks) to create a porous, soft texture.
· Acidity Regulator: Used in products like chocolate and butter to adjust pH; also for color preservation in fruit and vegetable processing.
· Carbon Dioxide Generator: Used in effervescent tablets, carbonated drinks, and soda water.
· Processing Aid: Used in goat milk processing to reduce gamy flavor.Animal Nutrition: Used as a feed additive for ruminants and non-ruminants to adjust stomach pH and provide a sodium source.
Personal Care:
· Toothpaste: Serves as a mild abrasive to aid in teeth cleaning.
· Bath Products: Used in bath salts to soften water and soothe skin.Pharmaceutical & Health: Used as an antacid to temporarily relieve discomfort caused by excess stomach acid (requires pharmaceutical grade standards).
Eco-friendly Cleaning: Used as a mild household cleaner and deodorizer for kitchens, refrigerators, etc.
Safety Matters
Health Hazards:
· Safe for human consumption at regulated food additive levels. It is a substance naturally present in the human body and involved in maintaining acid-base balance.
· Significant inhalation of dust may cause mild respiratory irritation.
· Extremely high doses may temporarily disrupt the body's acid-base balance, but this is very rare.Handling Protection:
· When handling large quantities of powder in industrial settings, work in a well-ventilated area and wear a dust mask to minimize dust inhalation.
· Avoid eye contact with dust.
· Wash hands after handling.Storage & Transportation:
· Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated, clean warehouse dedicated to food raw materials. Strictly protect from moisture. Must be strictly segregated from non-food chemicals and odorous materials.
· Keep containers tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption, caking, and contamination.
· Protect from moisture as it slowly decomposes in humid environments.Quality & Compliance:
· Ensure the product complies with the food additive regulations and standards of the target country/region (e.g., China GB 1886.2, US FDA 21 CFR 184.1736, EU E 500(ii)).
· Obtain a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming food grade compliance from the supplier, paying attention to safety indicators like heavy metals and arsenic.Special Considerations:
· Thermal Decomposition: Heating in a closed container poses an explosion risk due to carbon dioxide release.
· Reaction with Acids: Can react vigorously with strong acids.
