Tartaric Acid（Cat No.:R072464）is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid found in many plants, particularly grapes. It is widely used in the food and beverage industry as an acidulant, pH stabilizer, and antioxidant, especially in winemaking and baking. In pharmaceuticals, it serves as an excipient and effervescent component. Tartaric acid also plays a role in metal complexation, electroplating, and chiral resolution in chemical synthesis due to its stereochemistry. Supplied at high purity, it is ideal for applications in food processing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial formulations.
