Sodium ascorbate is a highly refined ingredient consisting of the sodium salt of ascorbic acid (CAS 134-03-2). Supplied as a white to slightly yellow crystalline powder, it dissolves readily in water and is commonly used in food preparation, formulation work and general ingredient applications where a highly soluble buffering ingredient is required. This Orku Sodium Ascorbate High Purity Soluble Crystalline Powder Tub conforms to recognised quality standards, including USP and FCC, supporting consistent identity and purity. Sodium ascorbate is widely used as a food additive (E301) and functions as an antioxidant and acidity regulator in ingredient formulations.
