Potassium Sorbate, with the formula CH3CH=CH-CH=CH-CO2K, is the potassium salt of sorbic acid and is produced by neutralizing potassium hydroxide with sorbic acid. Potassium Sorbate prevents yeasts and molds in in a wide variety of food from fruit juices, wine to cheese and yogurt. In addition, it’s used as preservative in personal care products.
