Monohydrate citric acid is crystallized from cold water. Monohydrate type can be converted into anhydrous type by debonding water at around 78℃. The same as anhydrous citric acid, the citric acid content of citric acid monohydrate is also above 99.5%. However, the moisture content of monohydrate citric acid powder is generally between 7.5% and 8.8%.
