Industry Overview
Calcium propionate is the calcium salt of propionic acid and is widely used as a preservative and antimicrobial agent, particularly for controlling mold growth. It is especially important in bakery products, where it helps inhibit mold under conditions that can otherwise support rapid fungal growth. Calcium propionate is also used in cheeses, confections and frostings, gelatins, puddings and fillings, jams and jellies, and certain other food applications. The compound is formed by reacting calcium hydroxide with propionic acid and occurs in crystalline or powder form. It is soluble in water and only slightly soluble in alcohol.
Beyond food preservation, calcium propionate has applications in agriculture, including use as a feed supplement and in measures associated with preventing milk fever in cows. It also finds applications in some pharmaceutical and tobacco products and has been used in the manufacture of butyl rubber, where it can improve processing and help protect the rubber from scorching. The report covers its properties, mechanism of action, uses, identification and testing methods, manufacturing process, plant layout, raw materials, machinery, market overview, suppliers, and project economics.
