Kalciumacetat är ett salt av kalciumacetat, en vit till brun eller grå kristall med en distinkt lukt. Det vanliga namnet på kalciumacetat är kalciumacetat. Hydroskopiciteten hos vattenfritt kalciumacetat är mycket bra, så vanligt kalciumacetat finns i form av monohydrat. Det används som livsmedelsstabilisator, korrosionsinhibitor och även vid syntes av acetat.
Calcium acetate is used in the food industry as an additive (E263) for several purposes:
Preservative: It helps inhibit the growth of certain bacteria and fungi, extending the shelf life of various food products, particularly baked goods and some dairy products.
Firming Agent: In canned fruits and vegetables, it helps maintain firmness and texture, preventing them from becoming mushy during processing and storage.
Acidity Regulator/pH Control Agent: It can be used to stabilize pH levels in food products, ensuring consistent taste and quality.
Stabilizer and Thickener: It can act as a stabilizer, particularly in dairy products, to prevent separation or deterioration.
Nutrient Supplement/Calcium Fortifier: As a source of calcium, it can be added to foods to increase their calcium content, particularly in products marketed as “high-calcium,” such as milk, bread, and biscuits.
Flavor Enhancer/Adjuvant: It can contribute to the taste and flavor profile of certain foods.
