we are indulged in importing, trading and supplying an Potassium Sorbate in Vapi, Gujarat, India. Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, chemical formula CH3CH=CHa CH=CHa CO2K. It is a white salt that is very soluble in water (58.2% at 20 A C). It is primarily used as a food preservative (E number 202). Potassium sorbate is effective in a variety of applications including food and personal-care products. While sorbic acid is naturally occurring in some berries, virtually all of the world's production of sorbic acid, from which potassium sorbate is derived, is manufactured synthetically. Potassium sorbate is used to inhibit molds and yeasts in many foods, such as cheese, yogurt, dried meats, apple soft drinks and fruit drinks, and baked goods. It is used in the preparation of items such as hotcake syrup and milkshakes served by fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's.
