Description

Citric Acid, Zirconium Salt is a coordination compound formed from citric acid and zirconium ions. This material is valued for its ability to act as a source of bioavailable zirconium and as a cross-linking or stabilizing agent in various formulations. It serves critical functions in industries such as pharmaceuticals, personal care, and advanced materials manufacturing, where controlled metal ion release and chelation properties are required.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) or as a component in diagnostic agents.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as a stabilizer, opacifier, or viscosity modifier in creams, lotions, and deodorants.
• Dental Materials: Employed in formulations for cements, adhesives, or restorative materials due to its binding properties.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Acts as a mordant or tanning agent to improve dye fixation and material quality.
• Catalyst & Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a precursor or catalyst component in organic synthesis and polymerization reactions.
• Ceramic & Glass Manufacturing: Used as an additive to modify properties like opacity, thermal stability, or surface finish.
• Water Treatment: Can function as a sequestering agent for metal ions in industrial water systems.
