Calcium propionate is white light scaled crystal or white powder,is odorless or has slight smelll of propionic acid, and is table under heat and light. It is easy to deliquesce when being exposed in air, is easily soluble in water, is slightly soluble in ethanol and diethyl ether, and is nearly not soluble in beneze and acetone. Calcium propionate can produce free propionic acid in products and has strong inhibitory action on aspergillus niger, aerobic endospore-producing bacteria and some specific bacteria. It can be widely applied to foods,breads,cakes,mooncakes,mooncake stuffing,vinegar, soy, bean products and spicy and hot foods to prolong the shelf life of products.

3.Application

Calcium Propionate is a white powder or crystal, is odorless, or slightly smells propionic acid, and stable to heat and light. It is highly hydroscopic, soluble in water (50g/100ml) and insoluble in ethanol and ether. Under the acidic condition, it generates free propionic cid which has antibiotic effect.

4.Packing

Net weight: 25kg,paper-plastic bag or woven bag lined with PE bag, can also be customized according to customer’s requirements of packaging.

5.Storage and Transportation

Stored in cool, dry and ventilated place. Must not be loaded and transported with toxic, hazardous and polluting substances.
