CAS Number 6100-05-6 Monohydrate & 866-84-2 Anhydrous, Molecular Weight 324.4, Chemical Formula C6H5K3O7-H2O, HS Code 29181510

Potassium citrate or Tripotassium citrate is a potassium salt of citric acid with the molecular formula K3C6H5O7. It is a white, hygroscopic crystalline powder. It is odorless with a saline taste. In the monohydrate form, it is highly hygroscopic and deliquescent. As a food additive, potassium citrate is used to regulate acidity, and is known as E number E332. Potassium citrate is used to treat a kidney stone condition called renal tubular acidosis. It is also used to prevent kidney stones that may occur with gout. Potassium citrate is a urinary alkalinizer. It works by making the urine more alkaline (less acid). It is also used in many soft drinks as a buffering agent.

ASSAY
Procedure
Sample: 200 mg of Potassium Citrate
Blank: 25 mL of glacial acetic acid
Titrimetric system
Mode: Direct titration
Titrant: 0.1 N perchloric acid
Endpoint detection: Visual
Analysis: Dissolve the Sample in 25 mL of glacial acetic acid, add 2 drops of crystal violet TS, and titrate with the Titrant to a green endpoint. Perform a Blank determination.

Calculate the percentage of potassium citrate (C6H5K3O7) in the Sample taken:
Result = {[( V S − V B ) × N × F]/W} × 100

V S = Titrant volume consumed by the Sample (mL)
V B = Titrant volume consumed by the Blank ;(mL)
N = actual normality of the Titrant (mEq/mL)
F = equivalency factor, 102.1 mg/mEq
W = Sample weight (mg)
Acceptance criteria: 99.0% to 100.5% on the dried basis

DEFINITION
Potassium citrate contains not less than 99.0 per cent and not more than the equivalent of 101.0 per cent of tripotassium 2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylate, calculated with reference to the anhydrous substance.

CHARACTERS
A white, granular powder or transparent crystals, hygroscopic, very soluble in water, practically insoluble in alcohol.

IDENTIFICATION
A. To 1 ml of solution S (see Tests) add 4 ml of water. The solution gives the reaction of citrates.
B. 0.5 ml of solution S gives reaction of potassium.

TESTS
Solution S: Dissolve 10.0 g in carbon dioxide-free water prepared from distilled water and dilute to 100 ml with the same solvent.
Appearance of solution: Solution S is clear and colourless.
Acidity or alkalinity: To 10 ml of solution S add 0.1 ml of PhPh solution. Not more than 0.2 ml of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid or 0.1 M sodium hydroxide is required to change the colour of the indicator.
Readily carbonizable substances: To 0.20 g of the powdered substance to be examined add 10 ml of sulphuric acid and heat in a water-bath at 90 ± 1C for 60 min. Cool rapidly. The solution is not more intensely coloured than reference solution.
Chlorides: Dilute 10 ml of solution S to 15 ml with water. The solution complies with the limit test for chlorides (50 ppm).
Oxalates: Dissolve 0.50 g in 4 ml of water, add 3 ml of hydrochloric acid and 1 g of granulated zinc and heat on a water-bath for 1 min. Allow to stand for 2 min, decant the liquid into a test-tube containing 0.25 ml of a 10 g/l solution of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride and heat to boiling. Cool rapidly, transfer to a graduated cylinder and add an equal volume of hydrochloric acid and 0.25 ml of potassium ferricyanide solution. Shake and allow to stand for 30 min. Any pink colour in the solution is not more intense than that in a standard prepared at the same time and in the same manner using 4 ml of a 0.05 g/l solution of oxalic acid (300 ppm).
Sulphates: To 10 ml of solution S add 2 ml of hydrochloric acid and dilute to 15 ml with distilled water. The solution complies with the limit test for sulphates (150 ppm).
Heavy metals: 12 ml of solution S complies with limit test A for heavy metals (10 ppm).
Sodium: Not more than 0.3 per cent of Na, determined by atomic emission spectrometry.
Water: 4.0 per cent to 7.0 per cent, determined on 0.500 g by the semi-micro determination of water. After adding the substance to be examined, stir for 15 min before titrating.

Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing method according to the surrounding situation is used. Uninvolved persons should evacuate to a safe place.

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Restrict unprotected personnel from the area. Prevent any contact with hot surfaces. Do not approach facing the wind. Do not touch the spilled material.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage: Contain spilled material. Do not let the product enter drains. Use a shovel to put the material into a convenient waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow evacuating as per law.

Section 7: Handling and Storage

Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat, or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Prevent any contact with hot surfaces.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents.

Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Exposure Limits: This product does not contain any hazardous materials with occupational exposure limits established by the region-specific regulatory bodies. There is a blanket recommendation of 10 mg/m3 for inspirable dusts or mists when limits have not otherwise been established.
Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Use ventilation to keep exposure to airborne contaminants below the exposure limit.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping in work area. Dust deposits on floors and other surfaces may pick up moisture and cause the surfaces to become slippery and present safety hazards. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands after handling.
