Our premium Food Grade Glacial Acetic Acid (CH3COOH) is a high-purity organic compound and a typical fatty acid widely utilized across the global food industry. Recognized as the essential source of sourness and characteristic irritating odors in vinegar, it serves as a specified acidity regulator under the E260 food additive list, ensuring safety and consistency in food production.
Engineered for versatility, this colorless liquid with a purity of ≥ 99.8% is ideal for applications ranging from compound seasonings and flavor enhancement to the production of edible vinegar. Its ability to be diluted to precise concentrations (typically 4-5%) makes it a preferred choice for manufacturers of sauces, condiments, and preserved goods seeking a professional-grade acidity solution.
