Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) is a fat-soluble antioxidant suitable for use in oily and high-fat foods. Due to its good thermal stability, it can be used in frying or baking. Furthermore, BHA has a stronger antioxidant effect on animal fats but a weaker antioxidant effect on unsaturated vegetable fats. BHA can stabilize pigments in raw beef and inhibit the oxidation of ester compounds.

Blocking the chain reaction of lipid oxidation: BHA can capture free radicals generated during lipid peroxidation and terminate the chain propagation of free radicals by providing hydrogen atoms, thereby delaying the oxidative rancidity of fats and oils. Its antioxidant efficacy is particularly significant in animal fats and oils, and it exhibits good stability during high-temperature processing.
Synergistic enhancement of other antioxidants: When used in combination with antioxidants such as propyl gallate and citric acid, or metal chelators, it can produce a synergistic effect, significantly enhancing the overall protective capacity of the antioxidant system. This characteristic makes it commonly used in complex food systems in compound formulations.
Potential antibacterial effects: Studies show that BHA has a mild inhibitory effect on certain bacteria and fungi, possibly through disrupting the cell membrane structure of microorganisms; however, its primary use remains as an antioxidant rather than a preservative.
Preservation of Oily Foods:As an antioxidant, it is added within national standards to fried foods, instant noodles, biscuits, nut products, breakfast cereals, etc., to prevent rancidity and extend shelf life. It is also used in animal fats (such as lard) and vegetable oils to delay oxidative deterioration during storage and processing.
Feed and Cosmetic Industries: As an antioxidant in feed, it prevents the oxidative loss of fats and vitamins during storage. In cosmetics, it protects oily creams, lipsticks, and other products from rancidity, preventing spoilage and off-odors.
Rubber and Petroleum Product Stabilizers: In the rubber industry, it acts as an antioxidant to delay the aging and hardening of rubber due to oxidation. It is also used as an antioxidant additive in petroleum products such as lubricants and fuels to prevent oxidative degradation during storage and use.
Usage Restrictions and Safety Warnings: Exceeding the permitted limits or scope of use is strictly prohibited. my country's National Food Safety Standard for the Use of Food Additives (GB 2760-2014) clearly stipulates the maximum usage amounts for various types of food. Due to its potential health risks, some countries have restricted or banned its use in food, and consumers should pay attention to product label information.

For some products that require special packaging during transportation, we will carry out more delicate packaging. For example, retinal needs to be stored at -20 °C, so we choose cold chain transportation during transportation; deoxyarbutin will change color during transportation, so we will Vacuum packing of deoxyarbutin
