Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, chemical formula CH3CH=CH-CH=CH-CO2K. It is a white salt that is very soluble in water (58.2% at 20 °C). It is primarily used as a food preservative.Potassium sorbate is effective in a variety of applications including food, wine, and personal care products.
Potassium sorbate is white to pale yellow scaly crystals, crystal particles or crystal powder, odorless or slightly smelly, long-term exposure to the air is easy to absorb moisture, oxidation decomposition and discoloration. Potassium sorbate is soluble in water, 67.6g/100ml(20 ºC); 5% salt water, 47.5g/100ml(at room temperature); 25% sugar water, 51g/100ml(room temperature). Dissolved in propylene glycol, 5.8g/100ml; Ethanol, 0.3g/100ml. PH7 ~ 8 of 1% potassium sorbate solution

Potassium sorbate is a chemical additive. It's widely used as a preservative in foods, drinks, and personal care products. It is an odorless and tasteless salt synthetically produced from sorbic acid and potassium hydroxide.
As a high-effective preservative recommended by FAO and WHO, Having a stronger inhibition effect than sterilization effect,Potassium Sorbate can effectively prolong the preservation time of the food without changing the original flavor. The antisepsis effect of Potassium Sorbate is 5-10 times as much as that of sodium benzoate.
Potassium sorbate, the potassium salt of sorbic acid, is a commonly used preservative in food with the European food additive number E202. Generally, it is synthetic, vegan and gluten-free.
This ingredient is used to protect food from spoilage and therefore prolong the food shelf life by slowing the growth of molds and yeasts. You may have seen it in the label of wines, cheeses, cider, mead, soft drinks, and baked goods
