Product Description

Product Description

Calcium Propionate (E282),

identified by CAS No. 4075-81-4, presents as a white crystalline powder or free-flowing granules with no visible impurities and a faint characteristic odor. It demonstrates high solubility in water and exhibits weakly alkaline properties (pH 7.0-9.0 in 10% aqueous solution). As a versatile preservative approved by FAO/WHO and FCC, it effectively extends shelf life in baked goods, dairy products, and animal feed by penetrating microbial cell walls to inhibit mold and yeast growth.

Features

1. Dual-Action Preservation

Inhibits both mold and yeast, extending shelf life of food/feed by 30%-100%.

2. Flexible Forms
Available in powder (80-200 mesh) & granules (14-60 mesh) for liquid or dry blending systems.

3. Global Compliance
Certified for ISO 22000 (food), FAMI-QS (feed), Halal & Kosher

4. Nutritional Enhancement
Supplies calcium (≥18% Ca), replacing sodium propionate to reduce sodium intake.

5. Process Adaptability
Heat-resistant (150℃) & low-dust granules compatible with automated production.

FAQ

1. Q: What are the advantages over sodium propionate?
A: Two core benefits:

Reduces sodium intake: Calcium content (≥18%) replaces sodium, aligning with health trends.

Stabilizes pH: No impact on dough acidity (sodium propionate may raise pH).

2. Q: Will high-temperature baking reduce its preservative effect?
A: Heat-resistant up to 150°C with >90% efficacy retention post-baking.

Lab data: 85% mold inhibition rate after 180°C/20min exposure.

3. Q: Does it affect product flavor or texture?
A: No impact at recommended dosage:
* Flavor: Neutral taste (vs. bitter aftertaste from benzonate)
* Texture: No interference with dough gluten or feed pellet hardness.

4. Q: Why are granules more expesive than powder?
A: Premium reflects process costs:
* Granulation: Energy-intensive spray fluidized bed technology
* Dust control: Food-grade vegetable oil coating
* Slow-release design: Extends mold inhibition by >30%

5. Q: Can I get samples? What's the MOQ?
A: Free samples: 500g each of powder/granules
