Product Specification

Industrial Grade High Quality Sodium Acetate White Crystal for Food Industry

Sodium acetate properties

1. Chemical properties
Chemical formula: CH₃COONa

Molecular weight: 82.03 g/mol (anhydrous matter); 136.08 g/mol (trihydrate)

Structure: Composed of the radical acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) and sodium ion (Na +).

pH value: The aqueous solution is weakly alkaline, pH is about 8-9.

2. Physical properties
Appearance:

Anhydrous sodium acetate: white crystalline powder.

Sodium acetate trihydrate (CH₃COONa·3H₂O) : colorless transparent crystal.

Solubility:

Soluble in water, solubility increases significantly with temperature (at 20°C, about 46.5 g per 100 mL of water).

Slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble.

Melting point:

Anhydrous sodium acetate: 324°C.

Sodium acetate trihydrate: 58°C (dehydration decomposition).

Density:

Anhydrous sodium acetate: 1.528 g/cm³.

Sodium acetate trihydrate: 1.45g /cm³.

Hygroscopic: Sodium acetate trihydrate is easy to hygroscopic, and anhydrous sodium acetate hygroscopic is low.

3. Thermal stability
Heated decomposition. When heated to high temperatures, sodium acetate decomposes to

form sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) and methane (CH₄)

Sodium acetate used in food industry

1. Acidity regulator
Principle of action:

Sodium acetate aqueous solution is weakly alkaline and can be used to regulate the pH value of food.

As a buffer, sodium acetate can stabilize the pH of food, improve taste and shelf life.

Application scenario:

Beverages: Used in carbonated beverages, fruit juices and dairy products to regulate acidity.

Baked goods: Used in breads, cakes and other baked goods to improve texture and taste.

Step 2: Preservatives
Principle of action:

Sodium acetate can inhibit the growth of microorganisms and extend the shelf life of food.

Application scenario:

Meat products: Used in sausage, ham and other meat products to prevent corruption.

Condiments: Used in soy sauce, vinegar and other condiments to extend the shelf life.

3. Flavor enhancers
Principle of action:

Sodium acetate can enhance the flavor of food, improve the taste.

Application scenario:

Snacks: Used in potato chips, nuts and other snacks to enhance flavor.

Condiments: Used in sauces, salad dressings, etc., to enhance the taste.

4. Emulsifier
Principle of action:

Sodium acetate can improve the emulsification property of food and prevent the separation of oil and water.

Application scenario:

Dairy products: Used in cheese, yogurt and other dairy products to improve texture.

Condiments: Used in mayonnaise, salad dressing, etc., to prevent layering.
