Disodium succinate, with the chemical formula C4H4Na2O4 and a molecular weight of 162.05 (anhydrous) or 270.14 (hexahydrate), CAS number 150-90-3, is a colorless to white crystalline powder or granules. It is odorless, stable in air, readily soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, and its aqueous solution has a shellfish-like umami flavor with a taste threshold of 0.03%.
This compound is mainly prepared by reacting succinic acid with sodium hydroxide. The anhydrous form can be obtained by hot air drying and pulverizing at 120°C. As a food additive, disodium succinate functions as a flavoring agent, acidulant, and buffer, mitigating the harshness of seasonings and enhancing flavor. It is often used in combination with monosodium glutamate (MSG) (at approximately 10% of MSG). It is widely used in the processing of soy sauce, vinegar, chili sauce, pickles, sausages, ham, and surimi products.
Synergistic Flavor Enhancement and Improvement: Disodium succinate possesses a shellfish-like umami flavor (approximately 1/10 the intensity of monosodium glutamate), significantly enhancing the umami effect of monosodium glutamate (MSG), reducing salt usage, and masking unpleasant aftertastes. Its salty properties contribute to the flavor balance of low-sodium foods.
pH Buffering and Preservative Aid: Its solution is weakly alkaline, stabilizing the pH of food systems and inhibiting flavor deterioration under acidic conditions. By adjusting the pH of the environment, it can enhance the antibacterial effects of some chemical preservatives (such as potassium sorbate).
Antioxidant and Color Protection: It can bind metal ions (such as iron and copper) in food, reducing the fat oxidation and pigment degradation catalyzed by these ions, maintaining the color stability of processed meat products and canned goods.
Thickening and Texture Stabilization: In some foods, it can enhance the water-holding capacity of proteins, improve the elasticity and slicing properties of meat products, and prevent the separation or sedimentation of sauces and broths.
Compound seasonings and convenience foods: Widely used as umami enhancers in chicken essence, compound seasoning powders, soy sauce, oyster sauce, seasoning sauces, and hot pot bases. Enhances the overall flavor profile in seasoning packets of instant noodles, instant soups, and puffed foods.
Meat products and seafood processing: Used in sausages, ham, fish balls, and other products to improve water retention, elasticity, and slice integrity, while delaying fat oxidation. Highlights the natural umami flavor of shellfish in seafood sauces or imitation seafood products.
Beverages and pickled foods: Added to sports drinks and fruit and vegetable juices to adjust acid-base balance and enhance flavor. Used in pickling vegetables (such as kimchi) to stabilize the fermentation process and inhibit unwanted microorganisms.
Pet food and feed: Used as palatability enhancers and flavor enhancers in wet pet food and treats to improve palatability. Used in feed to improve animal appetite and aid nutrient absorption.

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
