SODIUM BENZOATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Sodium Benzoate is a white, crystalline organic compound with the chemical formula C7H5NaO2. It is widely used as a preservative in the food and beverage industry, helping to prevent the growth of mold, yeast, and bacteria in acidic products such as soft drinks, fruit juices, and condiments. Sodium Benzoate is also employed in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, where it acts as a preservative in medications, personal care products, and cosmetics. In addition, it is used in the formulation of certain cleaning products and as a corrosion inhibitor in antifreeze and other industrial fluids. Proper handling and storage of Sodium Benzoate are essential to maintain its quality and prevent moisture absorption. It is generally considered safe for consumption at regulated levels, although proper safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are essential to prevent irritation and other health hazards.
