Description
Potassium Sorbate Echa, also known as potassium 2,4-hexadienoate, is the potassium salt of sorbic acid. Its molecular formula is C6H7O2K. The product is supplied as white to light yellow scale-like crystals, crystalline particles, or crystalline powder, odorless or with a slight odor. It is easily soluble in water and soluble in propylene glycol and ethanol. Potassium sorbate is widely used as a preservative, exhibiting its efficacy in acidic mediums. Its mechanism of action involves disrupting the enzyme systems of microorganisms. Purchasers should consider the product's purity (99%), its form (crystals or powder), and its stability under prolonged air exposure, as it is prone to moisture absorption, oxidative decomposition, and discoloration.
Applications
Widely used in the food industry for the preservation of beverages, baked goods, dairy products, and meat delicacies.
