What is Benzoic Acid, Technical Grade
Benzoic acid is a naturally occurring and widely used organic compound classified as a simple aromatic carboxylic acid. It appears as a white, crystalline solid and has a faint yet pleasant odor. While it is only slightly soluble in cold water, its solubility increases with temperature and is much higher in organic solvents such as alcohol and ether.
Benzoic acid is most commonly recognized for its role as a preservative in food and beverages, where it helps prevent the growth of mold, yeast, and certain bacteria. It also plays a crucial role in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and a variety of industrial applications.
