Properties and Usage:
Tertiary butylhydroquinone (CAS 1948-33-0), referred to as TBHQ, is a powerful antioxidant used in food, cosmetics, industry, pharmaceuticals and other fields.
1. Food industry: prolong shelf life and stabilize flavor
Fats and fried foods: TBHQ can effectively prevent oil oxidation during high-temperature frying of vegetable oils and fats (such as fried potato chips).
Snacks and cakes: High-fat foods (such as potato chips and biscuits) with the addition of TBHQ have a more lasting flavor and a longer storage period.
Condiments: TBHQ effectively prevents fat oxidation in condiments such as soy sauce and chili oil, ensuring their quality and taste.
2. Cosmetics and personal care products: protect active ingredients in products
Tertiary butylhydroquinone, as an antioxidant, protects active ingredients in skin care products and cosmetics from oxidation, ensuring product stability and effectiveness.
3. Industrial applications: improve material and fuel stability
Polymer stabilizer: TBHQ is used as a stabilizer in plastics and rubber to prevent aging caused by high temperature and ultraviolet rays and extend product life.
Fuel additives: TBHQ is used in diesel, gasoline and lubricating oil to prevent oxidation and deterioration and improve fuel storage stability.
4. Pharmaceuticals and health products: Protect drug ingredients
In pharmaceuticals and health products, TBHQ is used as a stabilizer to protect the active ingredients of drugs from oxidation, extend the shelf life of the product, and improve the stability of the product.
5. Animal feed: Improve feed stability
TBHQ is used in animal feed to stabilize fat and nutrients, ensuring the effectiveness and long-term preservation of feed.
Storage conditions: Store below +30°C
