Sodium Diacetate is a free flowing, dust free and readily available source of Acetic acid – The acid familiar to the housewives in the form of vinegar- in granular form. Sodium diacetate crystals have free acetic acid firmly held into the crystal lattice of neutral sodium acetate , thereby masking the sharp odour of Acetic acid. This helps in preserving the material without affecting its natural odour. It is generally recognized as safe ingredient (GRAS) by the US FDA, and is a generally permitted food additive in Europe and elsewhere. On prolonged exposure to an atmosphere with low relative humidity sodium diacetate tends to lose acetic acid and reverts to anhydrous sodium acetate. In solution it is split off into its components acetic acid and sodium acetate.Sodium Diacetate is a 1:1 complex of sodium acetate and acetic acid. It can be used as a preservative for foods and has an E number of “E262”. Sodium Diacetate can act as a buffer to maintain relatively constant pH. | Sodium Diacetate Acid | | * Sodium Diacetate Acid is the most ideal nourishing antiseptic agent for keeping | | fresh and anti-mold in the world. | | *Sodium Diacetate helps to keep feed for long time, prevent mold all kinds of feed, grains and food. | | *Sodium Diacetate has many characteristics, such as effective anti-mold, no toxin side effect, no residual, no teratogenicity and so on. | | * Sodium Diacetate can be used as antiseptic for all kinds of feed, grains and food. | *According to the feed to add 0.1--0.3% and uniform mixed. | Function: | | Sodium diacetate (E262) provides a solid source of acetic acid for use in dry products. | | Benefits: | | Sodium diacetate (E262) has some specific uses as a source of acetic acid, for example in bread production, where it is used to protect against ropiness and against some moulds, and it is also used as a flavouring in dry products, particularly to impart the flavour of vinegar. | | Constraints: | | Sodium diacetate (E262) is generally permitted food additives under Directive 95/2/EC. | | Typical Uses: | | Sodium diacetate (E262) is used in bread, salt and vinegar flavour snacks, and instant soups. | | Industries | | Where Used: | | Bakery products; Flavours and seasonings; Sauces, dips and soups. | | Storage: | | Sodium diacetate (E262) should be stored in well-sealed containers as it loses acetic acid on storage. |

| Applications |
Sodium Diacetate found to have Antimicrobial and Antibacterial properties and is also used as a flavouring and pH control agent. It provides all types of baked goods with maximum protection against both mold and rope. It has got various applications as given below.
|
 |
1. Bakery Products
Sodium diacetate inhibits growth of certain types of mold and many deleterious micro-organism in dough and bread (notably Bacillus Mesentericus). It also inhibits the growth of mold and rope in bread, buns and sweet goods and mold in pies and cakes. Aside from its antimicrobrial effects sodium diacetate suppresses the enzymatic action of amylases in dough. Amylases, which degrade starch, bring about an undesirable increase in maltose content of flour from sprouted cereal. |

2. Meat Products
Sodium Diacetate can delay growth of spoilage micro-organism in hot dogs, lunch meats and poultry. Even small quantities of sodium diacetate can significantly prolong shelf life of meat products. Commonly used in combination with lactates for meatpacking applications. |

3. Snack Food
Vinegar taste on potato chips or tacos can be achieved by adding 0.1% sodium diacetate. Spread on the hot surface of the snacks immediately after production, sodium diacetate melts and provides the products with the savory taste of vinegar. |
|
| |
| 4. Flavour Enhancer Applications
It is sometimes referred to as imitation dry vinegar, is a popular flavouring agent in seasonings, foods, sauces and ketchups. Industrial breads and coatings manufacturers rely on sodium diacetate to prepare extra spicy breading for fast food, fish & chicken. |

5. Other Technical Applications
This includes the usage of sodium diacetate in the foam and photographic industry for controlling pH and the replacement of oxalic or citric acid for hardening, fixing and toning.
Technical grade of sodium diacetate is an excellent buffer and as such, is used for pH control. Use of technical grades of sodium diacetate as buffer and stabilizer in petroleum production and drilling mud is common.
Excessive moisture enhances the microbial growth in hay thus reducing the bioavailability and life of hay. Sodium Diacetate is used as effective preservative for hay. In field of Medicine it is a popular constituents of dry blends used for renal dialysis.
