Sodium Ascorbate

Sodium Ascorbate

Sodium Ascorbate is the sodium salt of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and is widely used as a mild, water-soluble antioxidant in food applications. It provides the same antioxidant benefits as ascorbic acid but with lower acidity, making it suitable for formulations where pH impact must be minimized.

Because of its excellent solubility and neutral taste profile, sodium ascorbate is commonly used to protect food products against oxidation, maintain color stability, and extend shelf life. It is especially preferred in sensitive systems where strong acidity could negatively affect flavor or texture.
