Product Name | Potassium Sorbate |
Synonyms | 2,4-potassium hexadienoic acid |
CAS No. | 24634-61-5 |
Molecular Formula | C6H7KO2 |
Structural Formula | |
Molecular Weight | 150.22 |
Appearance | Crystalline Powder |
Purity(GC) | 98-101% |
Package | 25kg carton/25kg bag/30kg drum |
Application | Potassium sorbate is mainly used as a food preservative but also used as a cosmetic preservative and anti-mold of feed. The lower the PH value, the stronger the antibacterial effect. Sorbic acid (potassium) can effectively inhibit the activity of mold, yeast, and aerobic bacteria, but it is almost ineffective to anaerobic bacillus and lactobacillus acidophilus and other beneficial microorganisms, and its role of inhibiting development is stronger than that of sterilization, so as to effectively prolong the preservation time of food and maintain the original flavor of food. Its preservative effect is 5-10 times that of similar product sodium benzoate. |
