Sodium Benzoate , CAS NO -532-32-1 About
odium benzoate is a white, crystalline or powdery compound with the chemical formula CHNaO and CAS No. 532-32-1. It is the sodium salt of benzoic acid and is highly soluble in water. Sodium benzoate is commonly used as a preservative in food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and personal-care products because it helps inhibit the growth of bacteria, yeasts, and molds, particularly in acidic formulations.
