The pictures of feed grade calcium propionate
Food preservative calcium propionate is a white powder or crystal, is odorless, or slightly smells propionic
acid, and stable to heat and light. It is highly hydroscopic, soluble inwater (50g/100ml) and insoluble in
ethanol and ether. Under the acidic condition, it generates free propionic cid which has antibiotic effect.
Studies indicate that calcium propionate is one of the safest food additives used by the food industry.
