📝 Key Usage Points

“General Purpose” Features: Due to its excellent performance, low price, and safe and stable use, BHT has been one of the most widely used antioxidants since its introduction in 1937. It effectively inhibits air oxidation, thermal degradation, and copper damage.

Difference between Industrial and Food Grade: Purity and impurity requirements vary in different fields. For example, when used in food and cosmetics, food-grade products that meet national standards must be used.

Physical and Chemical Properties: It appears as a white to pale yellow crystalline powder with a melting point of approximately 69-71℃. It is insoluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, ethanol, methanol, and oils.

안전 및 보관: It is generally considered safe to use when used in compliant dosages. It is non-toxic, non-flammable, non-corrosive, and has good storage stability, but it should still be stored in a cool, dry place.
