Sodium Benzoate CAS 532-32-1
Sodium benzoate, also known as sodium benzoate, is a commonly used food preservative in China's food industry. It has no odor or a slight benzoin smell, and has a sweet and astringent taste. Stable in the air and able to absorb moisture when exposed to the air. It naturally exists in blueberries, apples, plums, cranberries, cranberries, dried plums, cinnamon, and cloves, and its bactericidal performance is weaker than benzoic acid. The bactericidal power of 1.180g sodium benzoate is about equivalent to 1g benzoic acid. In acidic environments, sodium benzoate has a significant inhibitory effect on various microorganisms. At a pH of 3.5, a 0.05% solution can completely inhibit yeast growth, but when the pH is above 5.5, its effect on many molds and yeasts is poor. It has almost no effect in alkaline solutions. After entering the human body, sodium benzoate combines with glycine to form uric acid or with glucuronic acid to form gluconic acid during biotransformation, and is completely excreted from the urine without accumulating in the body. Within the normal dosage range, it has no toxic effect on the human body and is a relatively safe preservative.
