Frequently Asked Questions
Glacial acetic acid is the highly concentrated, pure form of acetic acid (≥ 99.8%). Regular vinegar is a diluted solution, typically containing 4-8% acetic acid. Our glacial acetic acid can be diluted to create edible vinegar.
It is called "glacial" because it freezes into ice-like crystals at temperatures below 16.6 ℃, resembling a glacier.
It is commonly used in tomato sauces, mayonnaise, kimchi, cheese, canned asparagus, baby food, and various soft drinks and candies.
To obtain a flavor similar to brewed vinegar, dilute the glacial acetic acid with water to a concentration of 4-5% and add necessary seasonings.
Yes, provided it is diluted properly. It is a recognized acidity regulator (E260) and safe for use in the food industry when following local regulatory concentration limits.
Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources. Note that it may solidify if stored below 16.6 ℃, which is a normal physical characteristic of the high purity grade.
