Uses

Potassium sorbate is an internationally recognized low toxicity and efficient acidic preservative, with the same anti-corrosion effect as sorbic acid. Potassium sorbate is widely used in industries such as food, beverages, soy sauce, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and agricultural products.

Potassium sorbate is used as a food preservative, fruit and vegetable preservative, cosmetic preservative, feed preservative, and inhibitor of mold and yeast.

Potassium sorbate is also used in wine production because it prevents yeast from continuing to ferment in the bottle. Potassium sorbate, as an acidity regulator, can regulate the pH value of food and beverages to maintain a stable acidity.

In industry, potassium sorbate can also be used as a catalyst, dye, and resin production.

Typical Properties

Potassium sorbate is mainly used as food preservative, cosmetics preservative and feed mould proof. It has a strong inhibition of spoilage bacteria and mold, and is easily soluble in water, so it is widely used. The lower the pH value, the stronger the antibacterial effect. Sorbic acid (potassium) can effectively inhibit the activities of molds, yeasts and aerobic bacteria, and also prevent the growth and reproduction of harmful microorganisms such as botulinum, Staphylococcus and Salmonella. However, it has almost no effect on beneficial microorganisms such as anaerobic bacillus and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Its inhibitory effect on development is stronger than bactericidal effect, so as to effectively prolong the storage time of food, And keep the original food flavor.
