Preservatives are substances that are added to foods, Agrochemicals , cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other products to prevent or slow down the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, and mold. They are used to increase the shelf life of these products and to ensure their safety for consumption or use.
Preservatives work by inhibiting the growth or activity of microorganisms, either by interfering with their metabolism, damaging their cell membrane, or disrupting their DNA. They can be classified into several categories based on their chemical structure and mode of action, such as organic acids, nitrites, sulfites, and benzoates.
Although preservatives are important for ensuring the safety and quality of many products, excessive consumption or exposure to certain preservatives may have negative health effects. Therefore, regulatory agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) establish limits on the amount of preservatives that can be used in different products to ensure their safety.

We offer TBHQ Tertiary Butyl Hydroquinone. which is the most effective synthetic food grade antioxidant, which was developed to be used in stabilizing various vegetable oils, fats and food against oxidative deterioration, thus retarding the development of rancidity in these products and extending their storage life. TBHQ exhibits an outstanding stabilizing effect in unsaturated fats, particularly in polyunsaturated vegetable oils, oils, and inedible animal fats. TBHQ can also be advantageous in essential oils, nuts buffer fat and food packing material. Thus, TBHQ provides a healthier and most favored option for preserving food products.
Standard Specifications:
Method of Application :
The fundamental rule to follow in allying antioxidant to the food product is to ensure that the antioxidants are thoroughly dissolved and dispersed in the fat or oil portion. However, there is the choice of methods of application, depending on the product, processing methods and available equipment for the addition of tbhq.
