The product we are introducing here is High Quality DL-Lactic acid with the CAS number 598-82-3. DL - lactic acid is a racemic mixture of D - lactic acid and L - lactic acid. It is a colorless to yellowish, syrupy liquid with an acid taste.
Some key parameters of this product include: the molecular formula is C₃H₆O₃, and the molecular weight is approximately 90.08 g/mol. It has a relatively high boiling point, around 122 °C at 15 mmHg, and a density of about 1.206 g/cm³ at 25 °C. The refractive index is typically in the range of 1.439 - 1.442.
This DL - lactic acid is of high quality and is offered at the best price in the market, ensuring cost - effectiveness for customers.
1. Food Industry: DL - lactic acid is widely used as an acidulant, flavoring agent, and preservative in the food industry. It can adjust the pH value of food products, enhance the flavor, and prevent the growth of microorganisms, thus extending the shelf - life of foods such as dairy products, baked goods, and beverages.
2. Pharmaceutical Industry: In the pharmaceutical field, it can be used as a raw material for the synthesis of some drugs. It also plays a role in adjusting the pH value of pharmaceutical formulations, improving the stability and solubility of drugs.
3. Cosmetics Industry: Due to its moisturizing and pH - adjusting properties, DL - lactic acid is used in many cosmetic products, such as skin creams, lotions, and shampoos. It can help to keep the skin and hair moisturized and in a healthy pH environment.
4. Chemical Industry: It serves as an important intermediate in the chemical synthesis process. For example, it can be used to produce biodegradable polymers, such as polylactic acid (PLA), which is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics.
When using DL - lactic acid, it is necessary to follow proper safety procedures. Wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles, to avoid direct contact with the skin and eyes.
In the food and beverage industry, it should be added in an appropriate amount according to the specific recipe and regulatory requirements. Usually, the addition amount can be determined through pre - experiments to achieve the desired taste and preservation effect.
In the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, it needs to be accurately formulated according to the formula requirements. It is often dissolved in appropriate solvents or mixed with other ingredients under specific conditions to ensure the quality and stability of the final product.
In the chemical synthesis process, it should be used in accordance with the specific reaction conditions, such as temperature, pressure, and reaction time, to ensure the smooth progress of the reaction and obtain high - quality products.
Case 1: A food company uses DL - lactic acid in their yogurt production. By adding a certain amount of DL - lactic acid, the yogurt's acidity is adjusted to an optimal level, which not only improves the flavor but also inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria. The shelf - life of the yogurt is extended from 7 days to 14 days, and the product has received positive feedback from consumers due to its better taste and longer freshness.
Case 2: A pharmaceutical company uses DL - lactic acid as a key intermediate in the synthesis of a new type of anti - inflammatory drug. Through strict control of the reaction conditions and the use of high - quality DL - lactic acid, the yield and purity of the final drug product are significantly improved. The new drug has shown good efficacy in clinical trials.
Case 3: A cosmetics brand incorporates DL - lactic acid into their facial moisturizing cream. The DL - lactic acid helps to maintain the skin's moisture and adjust the skin's pH value. After using the cream for a period of time, consumers report that their skin becomes more hydrated and smooth, and the product has achieved good sales results in the market.
