Application Scenarios:

Food Grade:

1. Compound Seasonings: Used in chicken bouillon, MSG, stock powder, hot pot base, and various sauces (such as soy sauce, oyster sauce, and instant noodle seasoning packets). It masks the bitterness or astringency of other ingredients, making the overall taste more rounded and mellow.

2. Seafood and Meat Products: Due to its inherent umami flavor, it is often used in processed seafood products such as fish balls, shrimp cakes, crab sticks, and canned goods, as well as meat products such as sausages and ham, significantly enhancing the sweetness of the meat.

3. Pickles and Preserved Products: Added to products such as pickled mustard greens, kimchi, and pickled radishes, it can mitigate the bitterness and sourness of salt, making the saltiness milder and more delicious.

4. Frozen and Convenience Foods: Used to improve the flavor retention of frozen dumplings, wontons, and instant noodle vegetable packets after freezing or dehydration and rehydration. 

Cosmetic Grade:

1. pH Adjuster and Buffer: In skincare products, shampoos, or shower gels, it stabilizes the product's pH level, preventing spoilage due to environmental changes.

2. Skin Conditioning: Succinic acid and its salts are used in some high-end skincare products as keratinocyte turnover promoters or antioxidant adjuvants to help improve skin texture.
