FOOD PRODUCTS FORMULATIONS ENCYCLOPEDIA -  1
Acidity regulators, or pH control agents, are food additives added to change or maintain pH (acidity or basicity). They can be organic or mineral acids, bases, neutralizing agents, or buffering agents.

Acidity regulators are indicated by their E number, such as E260 (acetic acid), or simply listed as "food acid".

Commonly used acidity regulators are citric, acetic and lactic acids.

calcium hydroxide
Description: Calcium hydroxide, traditionally called slaked lime, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(OH)2. It is a colorless crystal or white powder and is obtained when calcium oxide (called lime or quicklime) is mixed, or "slaked" with water.

calcium lactate
Description: Calcium lactate is a white crystalline salt made by the action of lactic acid on calcium carbonate. It is used in foods (as a baking powder) and given medicinally. Its E number is E327.

sodium dihydrogen citrate
Description: used as acidity regulators, antioxidants, emulsifiers in food industry.

trisodium citrate
Description: Trisodium citrate has the chemical formula of Na3C6H5O7. It is sometimes referred to simply as sodium citrate, though sodium citrate can refer to any of the three sodium salts of citric acid.

tripotassium citrate
Description: In food industry, it is used as buffer, chelating agent, stabilizer, anti-oxidant, emulsifier, flavoring additive etc.

calcium hydrogen phosphate
Description: Dicalcium phosphate, also known as calcium monohydrogen phosphate, is a dibasic calcium phosphate. It is usually found as the dihydrate, with the chemical formula of CaHPO4 • 2H2O, but it can be thermally converted to the anhydrous form.

sodium tripolyphosphate
Description: Sodium triphosphate (STP, sometimes STPP or sodium tripolyphosphate or TPP,) is an inorganic compound with formula Na5P3O10. It is the sodium salt of the polyphosphate penta-anion, which is the conjugate base of triphosphoric acid.

sodium polyphosphate
Description: soluble in water but insoluble in organic solvent; It has got strong hygroscopicity and can absorb humidity from the air to become into pasty form.

tripatossium orthophosphate
Description: a cleaning agent, food additive, stain remover and degreaser. It is a white, granular or crystalline solid, highly soluble in water producing an alkaline solution.

trisodium orthophosphate
Description: Trisodium phosphate (TSP, E339) is a cleaning agent, food additive, stain remover and degreaser. It is a white, granular or crystalline solid, highly soluble in water producing an alkaline solution.

tricalcium orthophosphate
Description: Tricalcium phosphate is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid with the chemical formula Ca3(PO4)2. It is also known as tribasic calcium phosphate and bone phosphate of lime, BPL.
sodium dihydrogen phosphate
Description: Monosodium phosphate (NaH2PO4), also known as anhydrous monobasic sodium phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, is a chemical compound of sodium with a phosphate counterion. It is used as a laxative and, in combination with other sodium phosphates, as a pH buffer.
