PECTIN (LIQUOR) Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Pectin liquor is a liquid extract of pectin obtained from fruits and vegetables. It is used as a gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer in food products such as jams, jellies, and confectioneries. Pectin liquor is valued for its ability to form gels in acidic conditions and is commonly used in low-sugar and sugar-free formulations. It is also employed in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics for its binding and emulsifying properties. Pectin is a dietary fiber that promotes digestive health and is often used in dietary supplements for its beneficial effects. Handling and storage require care to maintain its functionality.
