DESCRIPTION: Potassium Sorbate occurs as white to off white crystals, crystalline powder, or pellets. It decomposes at about 270°. Potassium Sorbate is mainly used as preservatives in Food. Potassium Sorbate can restrain effectively the activity of mould, yeast and aerophile bacteria. Restrain growth and reproduction of the pernicious micro oraganism as pseudomonas, staphylococcus salmonella action to restrain growth is more powerful than killing. Potassium Sorbate occurs as white to light yellow brown flaky crystals, crystalline powder or granules. It is odorless or has a slight odor.

FUNCTION: Antimicrobial agent; preservative.

SHILF LIFE: 2 YEARS
