Sodium Diacetate CAS:126-96-5

Sodium diacetate is a highly efficient and safe acidic preservative. It lowers pH and damages the cell membranes of microorganisms by releasing acetic acid, and is mainly used for mold prevention in food and feed. Its core advantages lie in broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, natural metabolic characteristics and clean label attributes, making it particularly suitable for health-oriented products that can replace traditional preservatives. Attention should be paid to its thermal sensitivity and pH application range. Reasonable design of the formula and processing technology can maximize its efficiency.

Food preservation

Vegetable preservation

Sodium diacetate, as an efficient and safe acidic preservative, has relatively limited application fields. It is mainly used for anti-corrosion and antibacterial purposes, with food preservation being its core application scenario. Other application scenarios include feed mold prevention and agricultural preservation, but the functions of these applications are all aimed at anti-corrosion, anti-mold, and preservation. For instance, when used in meat products, It can inhibit Listeria and Salmonella in ready-to-eat meat, replace some of the functions of nitrite, and can also be used in feed mold prevention. It can effectively inhibit the generation of aflatoxin and is safer than calcium propionate. It can also be used for vegetable preservation. After fruits and vegetables are picked, soaking or spraying them can effectively delay spoilage.
