Carbonic Acid
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is widely used in the food industry and hospitality industry, among others. Carbon dioxide is odorless and colorless and is widely used to provide drinks with sparkle. The use of carbon dioxide makes the drink fuller in taste and brings out the flavor better. Carbonic acid not only makes for a tasty drink but also prolongs its shelf life. In addition to its use in soft drinks, carbon dioxide is also used as a propellant when tapping beer.
The carbonic acid - Protadur® E 290 - that we offer is suitable for a variety of applications. The carbonic acid cools, protects, tingles and can be used in many processing applications.
