Calcium Propionate
identified by CAS No. 4075-81-4, presents as a white crystalline powder or free-flowing granules with no visible impurities and a faint characteristic odor. It demonstrates high solubility in water and exhibits weakly alkaline properties (pH 7.0-9.0 in 10% aqueous solution). As a versatile preservative approved by FAO/WHO and FCC, it effectively extends shelf life in baked goods, dairy products, and animal feed by penetrating microbial cell walls to inhibit mold and yeast growth.
