It is delivered as a free-flowing powder, making it easy to handle, convenient to store and more cost-effective than liquid alternatives. It offers superior performance in extending shelf life and enhancing food safety.

Progusta NDV is supplied as a free-flowing powder made from naturally fermented vinegar.

Essiccum® K is a free-flowing white crystalline blend that is Kosher and Halal. It imparts a vinegar flavor to snacks and foods.

Provian P is supplied as a free-flowing powder consisting of sodium propionate and sodium acetate.

Pharmaceutical and very pure grade Potassium Acetate can be used in the manufacture of antibiotics, penicillin, insulin and in haemo- and peritoneal dialysis solutions.

Magnesium Acetate is used in the dyes of ceramic tiles and also used in the textile dyeing. It is also used as a catalyst in polyester film production. Furthermore it is used in the production of cigarette paper and in the off-set printing.

Niaproof Monochloroacetic acid is used in the manufacture of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), which is then used in the manufacture of adhesives; detergents; finishing agents for the textile, leather and paper industries; and drilling muds for energy production. It is an important intermediate for the manufacture of herbicide. Monochloroacetic acid can also be used for a number of further reactions besides those typical of Monochloroacetic acids.

Monochloroacetic acid, also referred to as MCAA, is used as a versatile intermediate in the production of chemicals. MCAA is a strong organic acid which attacks many common metals.

Sodium Diacetate is used in haemodialysis. The product is also used in other applications where it is advantageous to use a solid source of free acetic acid, e. g. For safer handling and reduced transportation costs. Sodium Diacetate is available as a free-flowing white crystal, containing approximately equimolar amounts of Sodium Acetate and acetic acid.

Sodium Phenoxy Acetate (SPA) is most commonly used in the fermentation of Penicillin V. Patent literature also refers to herbicidal carboxylic acid salts of alkylamines, synthesis of insect repellents, esters of cortical hormones and cation exchange resins. Sodium Phenoxy Acetate (SPA) is available as an off-white powder.

Niacet’s technical acetates are widely used in a number of different industries and for various applications. Their main effect is pH adjustment, crystallization aid, or as a catalyst or reagent. Sodium Acetate is used in the leather tanning and in the textile dyeing. It is also used in detergent tablets and as buffer in photographic industry. Furthermore it is used as a polymer stabilizer and as thermal energy storage (heat packs).

Magnesium Acetate is used in the dyes of ceramic tiles and also used in the textile dyeing. It is also used as a catalyst in polyester film production. Furthermore it is used in the production of cigarette paper and in the off-set printing.

Niaproof Monochloroacetic acid is used in the manufacture of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), which is then used in the manufacture of adhesives; detergents; finishing agents for the textile, leather and paper industries; and drilling muds for energy production. It is an important intermediate for the manufacture of herbicide. Monochloroacetic acid can also be used for a number of further reactions besides those typical of Monochloroacetic acids.

Sodium Acetate is available as an agglomerate and a powder (anhydrous) as well as a crystal (trihydrate). Sodium Acetate trihydrate is very soluble in water. Sodium Acetate anhydrous agglomerate offers the properties of non- dustiness, improved wettability, higher reactivity, higher bulk density and improved free-flowability.

Furthermore it is used as a polymer stabilizer and as thermal energy storage (heat packs).

Zinc Acetate dihydrate is available as fine white crystals which are easily soluble in water.

Niacet’s pharma acetates, such as magnesium acetate plays an important role as a buffer regulating the pH level of the dialysis solution.Magnesium Acetate is available as a free flowing white powder (anhydrous), as a crystal (tetrahydrate) and as a 36% solution in water.

Calcium acetate is an effective growth inhibitor of many bacteria and molds. It is widely employed in bread and other bakery products to extend shelf-life and to prevent rope formation. The high moisture content of bakery goods encourages the growth of molds and rope bacteria. Rope spoilage is characterized by a sticky, wet, and brownish crumb as well as an unpleasant smell. Rope forming bacteria and many mold spores are heat resistant and survive the temperatures of the baking process. Also, re-contamination can occur. These are all good reasons to use a preservative to extend the shelf life of bakery goods. Calcium acetate is a preservative that is very effective against rope bacteria with some efficacy against molds. The recommended dosage for Progusta CA is 0.2 – 0.5% based on flour weight. In all cases, it is advisable to carry out an initial baking test, so that the precise effects on odor, flavor and bread volume can be determined.

Magnesium Acetate is used in the dyes of ceramic tiles and also used in the textile dyeing. It is also used as a catalyst in polyester film production. Furthermore it is used in the production of cigarette paper and in the off-set printing.

Progusta MA (magnesium acetate) food-grade is available as a free-flowing white powder (anhydrous). Progusta MA magnesium acetate is used as a mineral source for magnesium.

Probake®PP potassium propionate is supplied as a non-dusty and easy soluble agglomerate.

Provian NDVs is supplied as a free-flowing powder made from naturally fermented vinegar.

Progusta SD effectively supplies free acetic acid in a solid form with a concentration of 39-41% so it can be also considered as artificial dry vinegar. Progusta SD is used as a buffering agent to control the acidity of food products. In addition, it can also be used as a preservative to extend shelf life of food products and as a flavoring agent to impart a vinegar taste, for example in potato crisps with salt and vinegar taste. Progusta SD (sodium diacetate) can be used either as an buffering agent for acidity regulation or as a flavoring agent.

Progusta SA (sodium acetate) is an effective buffering agent, a flavoring agent, and a growth inhibitor of molds and bacteria found in various foods products.

Technical grade Ammonium Acetate is used in the textile dying as a mordant in dyeing of wool, silk, acrylics, nylon). It is also used in the surface treatment of metals and as a gelling agent in production of rubber latex. Furthermore it is also used in the production of gel foam carpet backing.

Pharmaceutical grade Ammonium Acetate is used in the manufacture of insulin and penicillin as well as in chromatography.

Sodium Acetate is available as an agglomerate and a powder (anhydrous) as well as a crystal (trihydrate). Sodium Acetate trihydrate is very soluble in water.
