Potassium Sorbate Market Trends, Analysis, Growth,
Overview Outlook 2016-2021
Potassium sorbate Market is used as a preservative in a number of foods,
since its anti-microbial properties stop the growth and spread of harmful
bacteria and molds. It is used in cheese, baked goods, syrups and jams. It is
also used as a preservative for dehydrated foods like jerky and dried fruit, as
it does not leave an aftertaste.
Global Potassium Sorbate Consumption Market is segmented, based on type, product type,
application, and region. Potassium sorbate comes across as a chemical formed by bonding between
potassium salt and sorbic acid, thereby creating a polysaturated fatty acid salt. It resembles a white
crystalline powder at room temperature, but in water, it will revert it back to sorbic acid as the
potassium gets dissolved.
Some forms of potassium sorbate appear as a yellowish powder which can be dissolved in propylene
glycol, ethanol or water to create a preservative with a variety of pH levels. It is quite simple to
manufacture. A combination of sorbic acid and potassium hydroxide will result into a reaction that
will form water and potassium hydroxide as the molecules bond. The water could then be strained
off for creating a solid form of the chemical, or the potassium sorbate could remain dissolved in water.
