Product Description
Benzoic acid excipient is a basic aromatic carboxylic acid used in the pharmaceutical and food and beverage (F&B) sectors. It is produced by partially oxidizing toluene with oxygen gas and utilizing cobalt or manganese salts as catalysts, which results in high purity of the product. It has different derivatives, such as sodium benzoate and potassium benzoate, which offer greater solubility in water and are frequently present in liquid medications and drinks. It is valued for its antibacterial qualities that help to prevent the growth of bacteria, yeast, and fungi. Its capacity to easily mix in organic solvents, but with limited solubility in water, makes it suitable for various formulations like topical, oral, and injectable medications. It is a favorable option for different pharmaceutical applications due to its inexpensive cost, ease of production, and minimal harmful effects. It is used to adjust pH in cosmetics and as a reference standard for calibrating analytical chemistry instruments.
