Discover Premium Economical Food Preservatives with our exceptional Sodium Metabisulfite offering.
Sodium Metabisulfite: A cornerstone ingredient in food preservation. Sodium Metabisulfite presents as a white or yellow crystalline powder or small crystals, characterized by a potent SO2 aroma. With a specific gravity of 1.4, it dissolves effortlessly in water, resulting in an acidic solution. In the presence of strong acids, it releases SO2, forming a corresponding salt. Exposure to air initiates oxidation, due to its chemical structure Na2S2O5, necessitating careful storage. At temperatures above 150°C, it decomposes, releasing SO2.
