TBHQ, or tertiary butylhydroquinone, is a synthetic antioxidant commonly used as a preservative in processed foods.
Tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) is a white to pale yellow crystalline powder that is typically odorless or has a faint aromatic scent. It is a synthetic antioxidant commonly used in the food industry to preserve the freshness and stability of fats and oils.
TBHQ functions by preventing the oxidation of lipids, which can lead to rancidity and spoilage in food products. It is effective at low concentrations, making it a valuable ingredient in various packaged and processed foods, such as snacks, fried products, and baked goods. In addition to its use in food preservation, TBHQ is also utilized in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications to enhance product stability and extend shelf life.
