Elevate Your Preservation Game with Our Premium Economical Food Preservatives: Sodium Metabisulfite
Sodium Metabisulfite Sodium Metabisulfite is a finely crafted white or yellow crystalline powder or small crystals, exuding a strong SO2 aroma. With a specific gravity of 1.4, it seamlessly dissolves in water, creating an acidic aqueous solution. When introduced to a strong acid, it releases SO2 and forms a corresponding salt. Exposure to air leads to oxidation, highlighting its chemical formula, Na2S2O5. Due to these properties, long-term storage isn't recommended as it decomposes to release SO2 above 150 degrees Celsius.
