Propionic acid holds the largest market share for feed acidulants
Propionic acid is commonly used as a preservative in animal feed and grain due to its non-corrosive nature to farm equipment. It has received approval for use in food, beverages, and animal feed by various organizations, and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when utilized as an antimicrobial and flavoring agent in food, as well as a chemical preservative in feed. This has led to an increase in the use of propionic acid in various food products and has resulted in the growth of the feed acidulants market.
The pH control by function is the fastest-growing segment in the feed acidulants market
