nature:
1. Sodium malate is a colorless crystalline or white granular solid substance.
2. It is a salt compound formed by malic acid and sodium ions.
Usage:
Can be used as an acid flavoring agent, buffering agent, and chelating agent.
Method:
The preparation of sodium malate is mainly achieved by reacting malic acid with sodium carbonate. Firstly, dissolve malic acid in water, then add sodium carbonate, react to produce sodium malic acid and precipitate it. Finally, the obtained sodium malate will be purified through steps such as filtration, washing, and crystallization.
Security information:
1. Sodium malate is considered safe for general use.
2. Excessive intake may lead to symptoms such as indigestion or diarrhea.
