Purpose
1. Mainly used as food preservatives and antifungal agents. It can also be used as an inhibitor for medium-viscous substances such as beer. Used as nitrocellulose solvent and plasticizer. It is also used in the preparation of nickel plating solutions, the preparation of food flavors and the manufacture of medicines, pesticides, antifungal agents, etc.
2. Organic synthetic raw materials, used to synthesize propylene salt, propionate ester, vinyl propionate, propylene ester cellulose, etc. Propionic acid is a safe food preservative that inhibits bacterial growth. It is also an effective organic acid preservative in grain and feed storage, and has strong antibacterial effects on various types of molds, aerobic bacilli or gram-negative bacilli. Propionic acid is used in aerosol form to prevent bread and other foods from becoming moldy. It is also used as a solvent and plasticizer for nitrocellulose. It can also be used as a reagent for the determination of aromatic diamines and an acidifying agent.
3. Cosmetics can be used as hair conditioners, anti-dandruff and anti-itching agents.
4. Propionic acid is used as an additive substance in electroless plating and electroplating.
5. Used in baked goods, cheese, and imitation dairy products.
6. Used as esterification agent, solvent for nitrocellulose, plasticizer, chemical reagent and raw material for food preparation. [25]
