Mono-Sodium Glycine Carbonate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Mono-Sodium Glycine Carbonate, a derivative of glycine, is a white powder. Very stable when exposed to air, no hygroscopicity, easily soluble in water. Its aqueous solution is alkaline and meets acid decomposition.

Uses

Mono-Sodium Glycine Carbonate can be used as an excellent source of carbon dioxide for effervescent drinks, wheaten food and puffed food. In medicine, it can be used to prepare effervescent tablets, to neutralize gastric acidic drugs, and to increase solubility for insoluble acidic drugs. In addition, it can be used as a good buffer, neutralizer and alkaline agent. This compound is an excellent substitute for sodium bicarbonate. Water is produced when a neutralization reaction occurs between mono-sodium glycine carbonate and acid, whereas water is produced with sodium bicarbonate. In the preparation of solid foam products and drugs, the neutralization reaction with water produced is very harmful and will aggravate the decomposing of the product.
