The Low Price Sorbic acid, also known as 2, 4-hexadienoic acid, is a natural organic compound with excellent corrosion resistance and high safety, widely recognized as an effective food preservative. It appears as a white crystalline powder and is stable under standard storage conditions.
This versatile compound is primarily used in the food and beverage, pesticide, and cosmetic industries. Additionally, as an unsaturated acid, the Quality sorbic acid finds applications in resin production, fragrances, and the rubber industry, offering both preservation and chemical functionality across multiple industrial sectors.
CAS NO. 110-44-1
EINECS NO. 203-768-7
Molecular Formula: C6H8O2
Quality Standard as BRC, FCCIV, HALAL, KOSHER, FAMI-QS
1. Excellent Preservative Effect
Sorbic acid performs exceptionally well in neutral foods with a pH of 6.0–6.5, effectively inhibiting the growth of mold and yeast. In contrast, sodium benzoate's effectiveness diminishes in foods with a pH above 4 and may affect taste.
2. Safe and Reliable
It is rapidly absorbed by the body and metabolized into carbon dioxide and water, leaving no residue.
According to FAO/WHO standards, the acceptable daily intake (ADI) is 0–25 mg/kg.
The oral LD50 in large mice is 4920 mg/kg, indicating extremely low toxicity.
The US FDA has listed sorbic acid as a "Generally Recognized As Safe" (GRAS) substance.
With toxicity only 1/12 that of table salt and 1/40 that of sodium benzoate, it is a safe and reliable preservative choice.
3. Natural Equivalent
It is naturally found in rowan seeds. Industrially synthesized sorbic acid used in food is metabolized in the human body in exactly the same way as the natural compound. Therefore, it belongs to the category of "natural equivalents, " combining the advantages of industrial production with natural safety.
4. Why Choose Sorbic Acid?
Highly effective preservative, suitable for all types of neutral foods.
Safe and residue-free, meeting global food safety standards.
