Citric Acid 50% Solution – NSF®-60 Certified | Premium Liquid Descaler & pH Adjustment Agent

Citric Acid 50% Solution is a versatile, food-grade, and NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 certified liquid acid commonly used for descaling, pH adjustment, and membrane cleaning in municipal, commercial, and industrial water treatment systems. With a citric acid concentration of 47.5–52.5% w/w, this transparent, colorless to pale yellow liquid offers powerful cleaning performance while remaining safe for potable water applications at dosages up to 250 mg/L.

Known for its mild yet highly effective chelating properties, Citric Acid 50% Solution binds to and dissolves scale-forming minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron—making it a trusted choice in calcium hypochlorite feed systems, reverse osmosis (RO) membrane maintenance, and other scale-sensitive applications.
