Monosodium citrate is a salt of citric acid, commonly used in cosmetics and food products as a buffering agent and pH adjuster. It helps to stabilize the pH of formulations, preventing them from becoming too acidic or too alkaline. It can also act as a chelating agent, binding to metal ions that might otherwise cause product instability.
