USP Grade 4
Premium sodium bicarbonate product specifically crafted for professional applications.
ARM & HAMMER™ Sodium Bicarbonate USP No. 4 Granular is a premium sodium bicarbonate product specifically crafted for professional applications. It boasts a superior level of purity and is meticulously designed to meet the stringent needs of the industry.
Notably, No. 4 Granular stands out due to its finely tuned particle size distribution. It features a slightly larger mean particle size compared to No. 1, while also ensuring that the very smallest particles are effectively removed. This results in a tighter particle size distribution and a reduced surface area available for reaction.
These distinctive characteristics make No. 4 Granular the optimal choice for formulating products such as refrigerated doughs and dry mixes that contain high levels of acid, including corn mixes or naturally acidic ingredients. These formulations often face stability challenges due to elevated moisture levels and the presence of acidic components. Premature reactions between these ingredients and the bicarbonate can lead to the untimely release of carbon dioxide, which is essential for achieving proper leavening in baking applications.
By utilizing No. 4 Granular, exceptional leavening performance is consistently achieved, ensuring reliable and predictable results in a wide range of baked goods. This product excels in providing optimized shelf stability with challenging formulations and storage conditions.
In summary, ARM & HAMMER™ Sodium Bicarbonate USP No. 4 Granular is an outstanding choice for professional bakers and food manufacturers seeking a premium sodium bicarbonate product that delivers enhanced stability and exceptional leavening performance. Its carefully engineered particle size distribution sets it apart as a reliable and effective solution for a variety of demanding applications.
