Potassium Sorbate


Potassium Sorbate is commonly regarded as a non-toxic, high effective preservative. It is synthesized from sorbic acid and potassium carbonate.

Formula:CH3CH=CHCH=CHCOOK

Excellent Color Stability--SANHE® Potassium sorbate of th, manufactured in the special advanced process, has solved the problem of yellowish appearance and unstable color in the radiation process. SANHE® potassium sorbate appears to be very white, color stability is very good.

Good Solubility--The solubility is 58.2g in 100ml water at 20°c, 20g in 100ml propylene glycol at 20°c, 2.0g in 100ml ethylalcohol at 20°c.

Good Heat Stability--It's stable in solid form in sealed package. But oxidation and color change easily occur if it is prolongly exposed in the air. Though it lacks a defined melting, thermal decomposition occurs around 270°c.

Good Inhibitory Activity--It's acid a preservative with inhibitory ability against a wide spectrum of yeasts, molds and bacteria, including most food borne pathogens. Its inhibitory activity depends upon the pH of the substrate; the upper limit for activity is pH6.5 in most applications and the degree of activity increase as the pH decrease.

High Safety--It's a potassium salt of unsaturated fatty acid. It can take part in the normal metabolism. WHO has approved it with the highest acceptable daily intake of all food preservatives 25mg/kg body weight. The safety of potassium sorbate has been well demonstrated.
