      advantage

      Strong Antioxidant Capacity
      Its antioxidant capacity is much stronger than that of similar products such as BHA, BHT and PG, 5-7 times that of them, and it can inhibit oil oxidation and rancidity more effectively.

      High Temperature Resistance
      It has excellent thermal stability and can withstand high temperatures up to 230℃, it is more suitable for high-temperature processed foods such as frying.

      Good Synergistic Effect
      It can be used together with other antioxidants such as BHA, BHT and chelating agents such as citric acid, which can produce a synergistic effect and improve the overall antioxidant and antiseptic effect.​

      No Adverse Effects
      It does not change color when encountering metal ions such as iron and copper, nor does it bring peculiar smell or abnormal flavor to foods, cosmetics and other products.

      High Adaptability
      It is easily soluble in animal and vegetable oils (especially vegetable oils), easy to add and use, and has a good antiseptic and antioxidant effect on most oils.

      Dual Function of Antibacterial
      In addition to antioxidation, it can also effectively inhibit the growth of various bacteria, molds and yeasts. It can enhance the antiseptic and fresh-keeping effect of products. ​

      aPPLICATION

      Food Field
      Used in various edible oils, fried foods, dried fish products, biscuits, instant noodles, dried fruit cans, cured meat products, etc. It can effectively inhibit oil oxidation and rancidity, extend the shelf life of products, and inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms in food to improve food safety.

      Cosmetics Field
      Used as an antioxidant, added to cosmetics such as lipsticks, lip gloss and hair dyes, it can inhibit the oxidation and deterioration of oil components in products, delay the aging of cosmetics, and maintain product stability.​

      Industrial Field
      Used as a stabilizer and anti-aging agent in products such as rubber, plastic, paint, varnish and resin, it can prevent them from aging and deterioration due to oxidation; it can also be added to biofuel as a corrosion inhibitor to inhibit the self-polymerization of organic peroxides, and can also be used as a PVC additive (anti-fisheye agent) to assist production.​

      Other Fields
      It can be used in experimental research to assist in inactivating barotolerant strains such as Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli; it can also be used in the material field to modify the surface of graphene nanosheets to prepare environmentally friendly supercapacitor electrode materials; at the same time, it can be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate to assist organic synthesis.​
