25kg/Bag Food Additives Sodium Bicarbonate Chemical NaHCO3 CAS Number 144-55-8

Sodium Bicarbonate for food additives 25kg/bag Chemical Formula NaHCO3 CAS Number 144-55-8 EINECS Number 205-633-8

Sodium bicarbonate, The molecular formula is NaHCO3, which is an inorganic compound, white powder or fine crystals, odorless, salty in taste, easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, and slightly alkaline in aqueous solution. It is prone to decomposition when heated and slowly decomposes in humid air, producing carbon dioxide. It begins to decompose at around 50 ℃ and completely decomposes when heated to 270 ℃. When encountering acid, it strongly decomposes and produces carbon dioxide. Sodium bicarbonate is widely used in industrial fields such as chemical, pharmaceutical, food, light industry, textile, and people's daily lives

Food processing purposes
In food processing, sodium bicarbonate is the most widely used loosening agent, used in the production of biscuits, bread, etc. However, after action, sodium carbonate will remain, and excessive use will cause excessive alkalinity in the food, leading to a deterioration of flavor and a yellowish brown color. It is a generator of carbon dioxide in soda drinks; It can be combined with alum to form alkaline fermentation powder, or with soda ash to form civil stone alkali; It can also be used as a butter preservative. It can be used as a color protectant for fruits and vegetables in vegetable processing. Adding about 0.1% to 0.2% sodium bicarbonate during fruit and vegetable washing can stabilize the green color. When sodium bicarbonate is used as a fruit and vegetable processing agent, it can increase the pH value of fruits and vegetables, improve the water holding capacity of proteins, promote the softening of food tissue cells, and dissolve astringent ingredients by boiling and bleaching them. In addition, it has a deodorizing effect on goat milk, with a usage rate of 0.001% to 0.002%.
Agricultural and animal husbandry purposes
Sodium bicarbonate can be used for agricultural seed soaking and can also compensate for the lack of lysine content in feed. Dissolving sodium bicarbonate in a small amount of water or mixing it with concentrated feed for cattle feeding (added in moderation) can promote cattle growth and significantly increase milk production.
Medical use
Sodium bicarbonate can be used as a raw material in pharmaceuticals to treat excessive stomach acid and metabolic acidosis, and can also alkalize urine to prevent uric acid kidney stones. It can also reduce the nephrotoxicity of sulfonamide drugs and prevent hemoglobin deposition in the renal tubules during acute hemolysis, treating symptoms caused by excessive stomach acid; Intravenous infusion has non-specific therapeutic effects on drug poisoning caused by barbiturates, salicylic acid drugs, and methanol. But it is forbidden to use it for gastric lavage when swallowing strong acid poisoning, and when injected in large quantities, with renal dysfunction or long-term use, it may cause arrhythmia, muscle spasms, pain, abnormal fatigue and weakness, slow breathing, bad breath, frequent urination, urgency, persistent headache, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, etc
