Potassium sorbate - colorless to white scaly crystalls or crystal powder, odourless or a slight odor Instability in the air can be oxidation coloring molecular weight 150.22 has the water absorbability Soluble in water Ethanol is mainly used as food preservative belongs to acidic preservative used with organic acid corrosion reaction effect increase in potash or potassium hydroxide and sorbic acid as raw materials was prepared Sorbic acid (potassium) can effectively restrain the mold, yeast anaerobic-aerobic bacterial activity, so as to effectively prolong food to save time, and keep the original flavor of food We when packing or canned food of choose and buy, the ingredients in a often see sorbic acid and potassium sorbate, yet they are commonly used food additives Sorbate (potassium) is an acid preservative, and still has a good anticorrosive effect in nearly neutral food (PH6.0-6.5) (not applicable to dairy products). Sorbate (potassium) is a highly effective and safe preservative recommended by the International Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Health Organization, which is widely used in food and beverage tobacco pesticide Cosmetics and other industries, as unsaturated acid, can also be used in resin fragrance and rubber industry
