Citric acid, also known as citric acid, is an important organic acid. It is a colorless crystal, odorless, has a strong sour taste, and is easily soluble in water. , is a natural preservative and food additive.
Applications of citric acid in minerals and pigments:
Citric acid has dispersing effect on minerals and pigments, and it can reduce the viscosity of some important slurry raw materials.
In mining, for example, the viscosity of phosphate rock powder during hydraulic transportation often becomes the main cause of clay expansion. Citric acid treatment can control the expansion. Make the slurry raw material easy to transport.
Citric acid can reduce the precipitation of titanium dioxide concentrated raw materials, making them easier to handle and transport in bulk.
Citric acid can also be used as a dispersant for low sizing rubber, paint and textile raw materials processing and titanium dioxide.
