Ammonium benzoate
Description
Ammonium benzoate (CAS 1863-63-4 ), also known commercially as Vulnoc AB, is the ammonium salt of benzoic acid used across food, pharmaceutical, personal care, and industrial formulations. It functions primarily as a preservative, pH buffer, and catalyst precursor, depending on the application sector. In rubber and elastomer processing, it acts as a vulcanization accelerator and stabilizer. This helps manufacturers control cure rates in latex and compounded rubber systems. Food and beverage producers use it as an antimicrobial preservative to extend shelf life in acidic products. In personal care and cosmetic formulations, it contributes to preservation and pH regulation, particularly in rinse-off and leave-on products targeting microbial stability for long-term storage. Pharmaceutical manufacturers incorporate it as a buffering agent and preservative in topical and oral preparations requiring controlled acidity. It is supplied as a white crystalline powder or granules. Food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade material is available to FCC , USP , and BP specifications, supporting regulated applications across multiple global sectors. Technical-grade material is also offered for industrial uses such as coatings, adhesives, and rubber processing. This versatile chemical ensures stability and performance in diverse manufacturing environments. Contact us for supply of Ammonium benzoate Request Quote
