DL-Tartaric Acid by Changmao Biochemical Engineering is a food/industrial organic acid ingredient (racemic tartaric acid) used as an acidulant and pH-adjusting component in a wide range of formulations. Changmao lists the chemical name as 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic acid with molecular formula C₄H₆O₆ and molecular weight 150.09.
In manufacturing, DL-tartaric acid is commonly selected for taste modulation (sourness), buffering/pH control, and process performance in food and beverage systems, and it may also be used in specialty industrial applications depending on buyer requirements.
Applications
- Food & beverage: acidulant, sour taste profile adjustment, pH control (finished use subject to local regulations and formulation needs)
- Bakery & confectionery: acidity control in mixes and processing systems (use-level and labeling are application-dependent)
- Nutraceutical / supplement manufacturing: acidulant/pH control in powders and certain delivery formats (process dependent)
- Industrial / chemical processing: selected applications where tartaric acid is specified (buyer qualification required)
