| Use | Used as a food flavoring agent, and can also be used as a solvent for natural and synthetic resins Used as a chemical reagent GB 2760-96 is a permitted edible flavor. Mainly used to prepare rum, liquor and bananas, pears, apples, pineapples, cream and other flavors. It can be used as a head fragrance and occasionally in daily chemical flavors. In perfumes and aqua daily necessities, it can give round head fragrance, especially in citrus-cologne flavor. It is widely used in edible essence, and can be used to prepare rum, white wine, apple, banana, raw pear, pineapple, plum, cream and other flavors. It is also used in tobacco flavors. This product is used as a solvent for cellulose esters and ethers, various natural or synthetic resins; as a spice, it can be used to blend apple, banana, plum, pineapple, as well as butter, western wine and other edible flavors. It can also be used as an advanced daily makeup Lv flavor. The product is also used as an intermediate in organic synthesis for the production of pyrimethamine, an antimalarial drug mainly used for etiological prevention. Ethyl propionate is a food spice allowed by my country's "Hygienic Standards for the Use of Food Additives". It is mainly used to prepare apricot, banana, pineapple, apple, strawberry, cream and other flavored flavors, such as liquor and rum. The dosage of gum sugar is 1100 mg/kg; 110 mg/kg in baked food; 78 mg/kg in candy; 29 mg/kg in cold drinks; 10~15 mg/kg in pudding; 7.7 mg/kg in soft drinks. Ester solvent, organic synthesis, flavoring agent. |
| production method | add 50kg of propionic acid and 38kg of ethanol into the reactor, stir for 15min and then add 38kg of anhydrous calcium chloride. After heating and reflux for 10h, 80 ~ 85L of crude product was distilled. Wash with 5% ~ 10% sodium carbonate solution for 3~4 times, and wash with water once after the acid is qualified. After 2~3kg of anhydrous sodium carbonate is added and dried, fractionated, and fraction at 96~100 ℃ is collected to obtain 40L of product. CH3CH2COOH + CH3CH20H → CH3CH2COOCH2CH3 + H2O propionic acid and ethanol are directly esterified under sulfuric acid catalysis, and then neutralized, washed and rectified to obtain the finished product. It is made by boiling esterification of propionic acid and ethanol in chloroform in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid. |
