Natural or Synthetic L-(+) Tartaric Acid - CAS 87-69-4

L-(+) Tartaric Acid - Natural or Synthetic - CAS 87-69-4

Acidity regulator and pH corrector for food and industrial applications

L-(+) tartaric acid - CAS 87-69-4 is an organic acid used as an acidity regulator, pH corrector and complexing agent in the food, oenological and industrial sectors.

Available in natural quality (of viticultural origin) or synthetic, it is widely used to adjust the acidity of formulations and stabilize certain products.

DESCRIPTION

L-(+) tartaric acid is a white crystalline powder naturally present in grapes. It is particularly used in oenology and food processing for its effectiveness in regulating pH.

In industry, it is used as:
