Sorbic acid is a highly effective food preservative and antimicrobial agent used globally to inhibit mold, yeast, and bacteria growth in beverages, baked goods, and processed foods. Its white crystalline powder form with 99% minimum purity (CAS 110-44-1) makes it ideal for extending shelf life while maintaining product safety.
Slightly soluble in water but freely soluble in ethanol, it works optimally in acidic environments (pH <6.5). With melting point of 132–135°C and minimal heavy metals, it supports compliance with food safety standards and regulatory requirements.
| Sr. No. | Description | Specification |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Purity | 99% minimum |
| 2 | Chemical Formula | C₆H₈O₂ |
| 3 | Form | White crystalline powder or granule |
| 4 | Country of origin | India |
| 5 | Quantities | 25 kg fiber drums or cartons, bulk kg options available |
White crystalline powder with density approximately 1.204 g/cm³ and characteristic odor; melting point 132–135°C.
Slightly soluble in water but freely soluble in ethanol and ether; effective antimicrobial in acidic conditions below pH 6.5.
Molecular weight 112.1 g/mol; low moisture (0.5% max) and minimal ash (0.2% max) ensure high chemical purity.
Non-combustible, chemically stable inorganic compound with 2-year shelf life under proper storage conditions.
Primary food preservative inhibiting mold and yeast in fruit juices, beverages, fermented products, and acidic foods.
Baked goods and pastry additive extending shelf life and preventing spoilage during storage and distribution.
Pharmaceutical stabilizer and antioxidant in formulations requiring preservation and shelf-life extension.
Cosmetic additive for product preservation and prevention of microbial contamination in creams and lotions.
Food-grade quality compliant with IP/BP/USP standards; low aldehydes (≤0.15%), heavy metals (≤10 ppm), and water content.
Store in a cool, dry place within tightly sealed containers away from direct sunlight and moisture for optimal stability.
Dust may cause irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract; use appropriate PPE and ensure good ventilation during handling.
Stable solution; follow recommended dosage levels for food applications to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
