Calcium Benzoate is the Calcium sale of Benzoic acid. It is a standard food preservative used in soy sauce, juice, and vinegar. Calcium Benzoate is an alternative to the more commonly used Sodium Benzoate when the food's Sodium content is sensitive. This chemical also has some industrial usages in the PVC and adhesive industries.
As a Food Preservative in Substitution of Sodium Benzoate:
Calcium Benzoate can be used as a substitute of Sodium Benzoate when there is a sensitive cap on the food's Sodium content. It has an antimicrobial mechanism similar to the more common Sodium Benzoate. It can also act as a Calcium supplement.
Calcium Benzoate is commonly used in soft beverages like juices. It is also a preservative used in bread, soy sauce, soy milk and vinegar. Calcium Benzoate can also serve as a water hardness reducer.
As a PVC Heat Stabilizer Ingredient:
Calcium Benzoate can be used as an ingredient in PVC heat stabilizers designed for transparent and flexible/semi-rigid PVC materials.
Some leading plastics manufacturers includes Calcium Benzoate in their production of plastic food packaging.
As a Feed Additive Ingredient:
Calcium Benzoate could be potentially used as a feed additive. Its Calcium ingredient can serve as a Calcium supplement, while its Benzoate portion could improve pigs' digestive ability, given that Benzoic acid is a widely used feed additive itself.
