Uses

Different sources of media describe the Uses of 39413-05-3 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Isopropyl Citrate (Mixture) is an antioxidant that reacts with metal ions that might catalyze oxidative reactions and thus will prevent rancidity. It is made by reacting citric acid (not soluble in fats and oils) with isopropyl alcohol (which readily dissolves in oil) and thus enables the citrate to dissolve in oil. It is used in vegetable oils.
2. Monoisopropyl Citrate is a sequestrant used in fats and oils.
3. Food additive.
