FAQ
Q1: What is the mechanism of action of calcium propionate in food processing?
A1: Calcium propionate can inhibit the growth of mold, yeast and other microorganisms in food and prevent them from multiplying in food, thus playing the role of antisepsis and preservation.
Q2: What is the production process of calcium propionate?
A2: Calcium propionate is usually produced by the reaction of propionic acid and calcium hydroxide (lime). The reaction generates calcium propionate, which is then made into finished products through processes such as crystallization, drying, and crushing.
