Sodium Erythorbate CAS 6381-77-7

Sodium Erythorbate is supplied as a functional antioxidant and reducing agent, widely used in food processing systems to control oxidation and maintain product stability. It is commonly applied in cured meat products and other processed foods where color retention and oxidative stability are required.

Beyond food applications, it may also be used in certain industrial systems where controlled reducing properties are needed. The product is typically supplied as a free-flowing crystalline powder suitable for direct incorporation into processing lines. Standard packaging, bulk supply, and documentation such as COA, TDS, and SDS are available to support procurement and formulation needs.
