Citric Acid 30–80 Mesh
Citric Acid 30–80 Mesh is a high-purity, coarse granular organic acid widely used in cosmetic, food, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications. Its controlled particle size makes it the preferred choice for bath bombs and shower steamers, where it reacts with sodium bicarbonate to create the signature fizzing and effervescent action. Compared to fine citric acid powder, the 30–80 mesh grade offers improved flowability, reduced dust, and more consistent blending in dry formulations.
Beyond personal care, Citric Acid is an excellent pH adjuster, chelating agent, and natural cleaning ingredient, making it one of the most versatile raw materials available.
Why 30–80 Mesh is Preferred for Bath Bombs & Shower Steamers
The coarse granule size provides:
-
Better mixing with baking soda
-
Reduced dust during manufacturing
-
Improved flow in production equipment
-
More consistent and controlled fizzing
-
Reduced risk of premature reaction from ambient moisture
-
Improved finished product appearance
