About Fumaric Acid

Fumaric Acid

Fumaric acid or trans-butenedioic acid is the chemical compound with the formula HO₂CCH=CHCO₂H. This white crystalline compound is one of two isomericunsaturated dicarboxylic acids, the other being maleic acid. In fumaric acid the carboxylic acid groups are trans (E) and in maleic acid they are cis (Z). Fumaric acid has afruit-like taste. The salts and esters are known as fumarates. Dimethyl fumarate significantly reduces disability progression in multiple sclerosis.

Versatile Applications

Widely selected as an acidity regulator, Fumaric Acid is compatible with most food-grade ingredients and offers a strong sour flavor profile. Its utility extends to industrial manufacturing, including resins and paints, thanks to its high purity and fine particle size (80-100 mesh).

Reliable Supply and Storage

Available in 25 kg bags or drums, Fumaric Acid is supplied in crystalline form with a recommended shelf life of two years. For optimal quality, it should be stored in cool, dry, ventilated environments away from moisture, meeting key logistical needs for exporters and importers.

FAQs of Fumaric Acid:

Q: How is Fumaric Acid used in food and beverage applications?

A: Fumaric Acid serves as an acidity regulator, imparting a strong sour taste and stabilizing flavors in foods and beverages. Its fine crystalline powder is easily incorporated, ensuring uniform distribution and compatibility with typical food-grade ingredients.

Q: What benefits does Fumaric Acid offer for manufacturers?

A: Fumaric Acid provides superior acidification, high purity, and strong flavor enhancement. It is biodegradable, approved by the FDA, and delivered with minimal heavy metal and lead content, ensuring consistent performance and regulatory compliance.

Q: When should Fumaric Acid be added during processing?

A: Fumaric Acid is typically blended during the mixing stage of production, ensuring even dispersion and optimal acidic impact. Its strong acidity allows for precise dosage, minimizing the need for excessive quantities.

Q: Where should Fumaric Acid be stored to maintain quality?

A: Store Fumaric Acid in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from moisture. Ideal storage conditions preserve its powder consistency and extend shelf life to up to 2 years, ensuring the product remains effective during use.

Q: What is the process behind quality control for Fumaric Acid?

A: Quality control involves stringent testing of purity (>99.5%), particle size (80-100 mesh), heavy metal content (<10 ppm), and microbiological parameters. These procedures confirm its compliance with food-grade and regulatory standards, securing safety and efficacy.

Q: Is Fumaric Acid compatible with other food additives?

A: Yes, Fumaric Acid is compatible with most food-grade ingredients, making it suitable for multi-ingredient formulations where acidic regulation and flavor stabilization are required.
