Production methodprocess of Sorbic acid powder

• 1. Vinyl ketone method This method is the more commonly used method in the international industrial production. Acetic acid by high temperature cracking to generate vinyl ketone, and then condensed with crotonaldehyde to polyester, and then hydrolysis, refining that is obtained Sorbic acid Raw Materials .
• 2.Malonic acid method is obtained from malonic acid, crotonaldehyde condensation, decarboxylation and Sorbic acid powder.
• 3. Acetone method condenses acetone and crotonaldehyde, then dehydrogenates to obtain Sorbic acid CAS 110-44-1.
