Product introduction

Used as a preservative for bread; pastry and cheese; and as a   mold inhibitor for feed. As a food preservative, calcium propionate is mainly   used in bread, because sodium propionate can increase the pH value of bread   and delay the fermentation of raw flour; sodium propionate is often used in   cakes, because synthetic leavening agent is used in cake bulking, and there   is no yeast development problem caused by the increase of pH value. Sodium   propionate is better than calcium propionate as feed preservative. But   calcium propionate is more stable than sodium propionate. Propionate is not   only used in bread, pastry, cheese and so on, but also used in soy sauce to   prevent mold and inhibit re fermentation. In medicine, propionate can be made   into powder, solution and ointment to treat diseases caused by skin parasitic   mold. The ointment (liquid) contains 12.3% sodium propionate and the powder   contains 15% calcium propionate.
