Potassium Sorbate

Chemical Formula: C₆H₇KO₂
Application

Potassium sorbate (C₆H₇KO₂) is a widely used preservative in the food and beverage industry, known for its effectiveness in inhibiting mold, yeast, and fungi. It helps extend the shelf life of products such as cheeses, wines, and baked goods. Additionally, potassium sorbate serves as a stabilizing agent in various industrial applications, preventing the premature oxidation of flotation reagents. This enhances the efficiency of recovery processes by maintaining the effectiveness of the reagents, ensuring optimal separation and recovery of target materials.
