Potassium citrate (K3C6H5O7) or tri-potassium citrate, refers to a white, odorless, citric, hygroscopic crystalline powder that is manufactured by combining potassium bicarbonate and citric acid. It acts as an essential mineral for maintaining body fluid volume, regulating cell function, and balancing electrolytes. This, in turn, helps in treating kidney stone conditions, reducing the risk of metabolic ailments, producing alkalizing effects in the body for balancing urinary pH levels, maintaining a healthy heart, and controlling muscle and nerve function. Potassium Citrate Market Trends:
The widespread adoption of potassium citrate across various industrial verticals, such as pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food and beverage (F&B), as an alternative to sodium citrate is one of the prime factors primarily driving the market growth. This is further supported by the rising demand for a healthy diet and increasing health consciousness amongst consumers regarding the increasing prevalence of heart disorders caused due to the consumption of sodium in excessive amount. In line with this, the extensive product utilization as an emulsifying agent for achieving soft crumb structure and enhancing shelf life of various baked and confectionery items is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the escalating investments made by the government of various countries in research and development (R&D) activities for introducing diuretics as a clinical medicine to reduce the fluid level in the human body without losing potassium is contributing to the market growth. Potassium citrate also functions as an electrolyte replenisher, protein supplement, excipient, and antiacid, which, in turn, is facilitating their widespread adoption across the healthcare sector. Apart from this, strategic collaborations amongst the key players for launching advanced, potassium-nitrate infused personal care products to extend their existing brand portfolio is creating a positive outlook for the market.
