What Are The Characteristics Of Sodium Diacetate
Jan 02,2024
What are the precautions for using sodium diacetate? Do you understand? We all know that sodium diacetate has the effects of mold prevention, anti-corrosion, preservation, and enhancing taste. But there are also some things to pay attention to when using sodium diacetate. Do you know? For the convenience of everyone's understanding, let's now provide a detailed introduction to the precautions for using sodium diacetate.
1. Pay attention to the storage conditions. Sodium diacetate has hygroscopicity and needs to decompose above 150 ℃. Therefore, it should be stored in a dry and cool place with a temperature not exceeding 40 ℃. During the processing of adding it to feed, high temperatures should be avoided to prevent the decomposition of sodium diacetate and reduce its effectiveness.
2. Pay attention to the correct usage method. When using sodium diacetate, it should be added to water to form a concentrated solution and evenly sprinkled onto the feed. It can also be thoroughly mixed with other trace additives before being evenly mixed into the feed. Mixing sodium diacetate with other mold and preservatives such as calcium propionate, sodium benzoate, sodium sorbate, etc. has a synergistic effect and makes its properties more stable.
3. Pay attention to the appropriate amount of addition as an anti mold and preservative. When the moisture content increases, the amount of sodium diacetate added should increase. Moreover, under the same moisture content, the more the amount added, the longer the safe storage period. In general, the amount of sodium diacetate added to feed and food is 0.1% to 0.8%
The manufacturer of sodium diacetate stated that sodium diacetate can prevent various types of feed from mold and has excellent effects as an anti mold agent. As a feed additive, it can improve the palatability of feed, increase feed utilization rate, effectively increase the survival rate of chickens and the egg production of laying hens; Increase the lean meat rate and litter size of fattening pigs, and prevent pig diarrhea; Improve milk production and milk fat rate of cows. In addition, sodium diacetate can also be used as a seasoning agent, and its value will become increasingly prominent with the deepening of its application research.
