China Supplier Food Additives CAS 127-08-2 Potassium Acetate
Product description
Potassium acetate is an effective electrolyte supplement that can help regulate the acid-base balance in the body, especially in the treatment of metabolic acidosis. It can also be used as a sustained-release agent for drugs to extend their duration of action. Potassium acetate is commonly used as a preservative and antibacterial agent, which helps to extend the shelf life of food. Meanwhile, it is also a seasoning agent that can enhance the taste of food.
Potassium acetate has certain permeability, can increase glomerular filtration rate, promote water excretion from the body, and is suitable for treating diseases such as edema and hypertension. It can inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins, have antipyretic and analgesic effects, and can be used to alleviate symptoms such as fever and headache. The acetate ions and acetate molecules in potassium acetate have certain bactericidal and antibacterial properties, which can destroy bacterial cell walls and cause their death. They are commonly used in wound treatment or environmental cleaning, as well as as as as preservatives in food processing.
In addition to its application in the food industry, potassium acetate is also widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and other industrial fields. In the field of medicine, it can be used as an electrolyte supplement and a drug sustained-release agent; In the industrial field, it can be used as a buffer for electroplating industry, manufacturing dyes and pigments, etc. Potassium acetate, a food additive, has advantages such as anti-corrosion and preservation, improved taste, high purity and impurity free, good chemical stability, compliance with national standards, and versatility. These advantages have made potassium acetate widely used in the food industry, providing strong support for food safety, quality, and innovation.
Potassium acetate is a commonly used food additive that can be used as a preservative and antibacterial agent, helping to extend the shelf life of food. Meanwhile, it is also a seasoning agent that can enhance the taste of food. Potassium acetate is also widely used in industrial production. For example, it can serve as a buffer in the electroplating industry to prevent excessive acidity of the electrolyte. In addition, it can also be used to manufacture dyes and pigments, improving the stability and durability of products.
The preparation method of potassium acetate usually involves the reaction between glacial acetic acid and potassium hydroxide. The specific preparation process includes mixing potassium bicarbonate with water, and then slowly adding glacial acetic acid under heating and stirring conditions. During the reaction process, a large amount of carbon dioxide gas will be produced. After the reaction is completed, potassium acetate crystals are finally obtained through steps such as boiling, filtration, evaporation, cooling, and drying.
