BHA as antioxidant in meat products and sausage

BHA (Butylated Hydroxyanisole, CAS 25013-16-5) is an oil-soluble synthetic antioxidant with the molecular formula C₁₁H₁₆O₂. It appears as a white to pale yellow waxy solid. Widely used as an antioxidant and preservative in food, cosmetics and feed applications, BHA effectively prevents oxidative rancidity of oils and oil-containing foods, significantly extending shelf life. As a globally recognized food additive, BHA is primarily applied in edible oils, fried foods, baked goods, meat products, chewing gum and many other products. As a professional supplier, we supply food-grade and pharma-grade BHA products, supporting stable bulk supply for global customers.
