Products Description
Malic acid (also known as 2-hydroxysuccinic acid) is an organic acid that occurs naturally in many fruits. It has a pleasant sour taste and is highly soluble in water. It is widely used in fields such as food, medicine, cosmetics and chemicals, mainly playing an important role as an acidulant, antioxidant and exfoliating component.
Application
1. Beverages
Among various refreshing beverages, malic acid not only provides a refreshing and thirst-quenching sourness but also effectively prolongs the duration of the sourness, making the flavor more authentic and natural. It is often used as a flavor fixative. When used in combination with sweeteners such as aspartame, it can enhance the stability of sweetness and mask the astringency of artificial sweeteners. In addition, it participates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle in the human body and is thus often added to sports nutrition drinks to help relieve fatigue and enhance metabolic efficiency.
2. Gummy candies and candies
For gummy candies with pectin as the gel skeleton, malic acid is an indispensable "soul" component. It can precisely adjust the pH value of the system, promoting the successful gelation of pectin and endowing the gummy candies with a chewy or brittle texture. Meanwhile, the sourness of malic acid can perfectly balance with the high concentration of sugar, preventing it from being overly sweet. In sour cream gummy candies, it can also bring a strong sour and refreshing stimulating taste, and help maintain color and freshness, as well as delay the oxidation and Browning of the product.
3. Cakes and baked goods
It has the functions of flavoring, antibacterial and preservative, effectively extending the shelf life and maintaining the color. It can promote the formation of a stable network structure of proteins in dough, improve the breathability, elasticity and toughness of food, and make the taste more full-bodied and harmonious.
4.The skincare and daily chemical industry
As an α -hydroxy acid (AHA), malic acid is an important exfoliating and moisturizing ingredient in cosmetics. It can gently dissolve dead cells on the skin surface, improve acne, roughness, pigmentation and other problems, thereby smoothing fine lines, shrinking pores and enhancing skin firmness and luster.
5.The fields of chemical engineering and agriculture
In the field of chemical engineering, malic acid can be used to synthesize polyester resins, surfactants, as well as an environmentally friendly coating additive and metal cleaner. In agriculture, its application in animal nutrition feed can play a role in improving the quality of pork and so on.
