PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Sodium Benzoate has been extensively used for many years as a preservative to control microbial growth. It is used in the food and beverage industries, pharmaceuticals, cosmetic products, corrosion inhibitors in automotive and other antifreeze products. A range of high quality benzoic acid grades are offered to meet the different.

APPLICATIONS OF BENZOATE SODIUM:

1. In most countries in the world for many years, sodium benzoate is allowed to be used as a food preservative (except for a few special cases), and the maximum allowable amount is generally between 0.15% and 0.25%. Sodium benzoate is also used in the pharmaceutical industry and plant genetic research, as a dye intermediate, fungicide, and preservative. So whether it is used in food or medicine, the effect of sodium benzoate is not much different.

2. Sodium benzoate is also used to protect the juice that will be further processed. In general water, in order to prevent the product from being oxidized, damaging enzymes and bacterial spoilage (lactic acid and acetic acid fermentation), sodium benzoate should be combined with a small amount of SO2.

3. In addition, the juice should be pasteurized to inactivate enzymes and reduce the number of microorganisms. The concentration of sodium benzoate used is generally 0.05% to 0.2%, the concentration depends on the type of juice and the length of time required for the product to remain fresh.

4. In non-alcoholic soft drinks, the use of 0.02% sodium benzoate will increase the safety factor against yeast spoilage. In sparkling wine, due to the combined preservative effect of carbon dioxide and alcohol, sodium benzoate is usually added to increase the safety preservative coefficient. Generally, the amount of sodium benzoate is less than 0.1%. In fruit wine, the amount of sodium benzoate added is large, but it does not exceed the range of 0.15%.
