Improves Heat Stability & Prevents Acid Loss during Thermal Processing

Normal tartaric acid is prone to volatilization and degradation under high-temperature processing, including candy boiling, bakery baking, beverage pasteurization and UHT sterilization. This leads to weak, inconsistent acidity in finished products, forcing manufacturers to increase dosage to compensate and raising raw material costs. Batch-to-batch taste variation also becomes unavoidable.

The protective capsule wall acts as a heat-resistant barrier, withstanding temperatures up to 170°C. Encapsulated tartaric acid retains over 95% of its acidity and functional activity after high-heat processing, ensuring stable, consistent tartness throughout production and shelf life. This eliminates the need for excess dosage and guarantees uniform product quality across batches.

Improves Heat Stability & Prevents Acid Loss during Thermal Processing

Normal tartaric acid is highly acidic and reactive, causing multiple formulation problems:

①　It denatures dairy and plant proteins, leading to curdling, stratification and gritty textures in milk drinks, plant-based beverages and creamy sauces.

②　It forms insoluble precipitates with calcium, iron, zinc and other mineral ions, making fortified drinks cloudy and uneven.

③　It accelerates the degradation of natural pigments (anthocyanins, carotenoids), causing fading and discoloration in fruit juices and preserves.

④　It speeds up CO₂ escape in carbonated drinks, resulting in flat, less fizzy products with a short shelf life.

The protective capsule wall physically isolates tartaric acid from reactive ingredients, preventing direct contact and all adverse reactions. This maintains the smooth texture of protein-based products, the clarity of fortified beverages, the vibrant color of naturally colored goods and the fizz stability of carbonated drinks—critical for high-quality, visually appealing end products.

Eliminates Hygroscopic Caking & Boosts Production Efficiency

Normal  tartaric acid is highly hygroscopic. It absorbs moisture easily during storage and automatic feeding, causing caking, clumping and sticking. This clogs dosing machines, mixers and packaging lines, requiring frequent downtime for cleaning and maintenance. Uneven dispersion also leads to raw material waste as high as 8–12%, along with inconsistent acidity in finished goods.

The capsule shell forms a moisture-proof barrier, making encapsulated tartaric acid non-hygroscopic and free-flowing. It feeds smoothly into fully automated production lines without caking or blockages, reducing raw material waste to below 1%. This cuts downtime, streamlines workflow and ensures precise, consistent dosing in every batch.

Ensures Uniform Dispersion in High-Viscosity & Complex Systems

Normal tartaric acid disperses in high-viscosity matrices such as jams, pastry fillings, thick syrups and gummy gels. It tends to clump and create localized "sour hot spots," resulting in uneven taste and poor consumer experience. Extended mixing times are required to improve dispersion, increasing energy consumption and production costs.

Encapsulated tartaric acid exists as uniform, fine micro-particles that disperse evenly in water-based, oil-based and high-viscosity systems without settling or agglomeration. It achieves consistent acidity throughout the product without extra mixing steps, making it suitable for nearly all complex food and beverage formulations.

Expands Formulation Compatibility to Oil-Based Systems

Normal tartaric acid is only water-soluble and cannot be used in oil-based products such as chocolate fillings, nut butters, oil-based marinades and fatty sauces. Manufacturers must source extra oil-soluble acidulants, increasing formulation complexity and raw material costs.

By using lipid-based wall materials, encapsulated tartaric acid can be engineered for oil-phase compatibility. It works equally well in water-based and oil-based systems, eliminating the need for multiple acidulants and simplifying formulation design. This opens up new application scenarios for tartaric acid in previously inaccessible oil-based product categories.
