E number
E numbers, short for Europe numbers, are codes for substances used as food additives, including those found naturally in many foods, such as vitamin C, for use within the European Union (EU) and European Free Trade Association (EFTA).
See Potassium propanoate and E number
Ethanol
Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, drinking alcohol, or simply alcohol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula.
See Potassium propanoate and Ethanol
International Numbering System for Food Additives
The International Numbering System for Food Additives (INS) is a European-based naming system for food additives, aimed at providing a short designation of what may be a lengthy actual name.

Potassium
Potassium is a chemical element; it has symbol K (from Neo-Latin kalium) and atomic number19.
See Potassium propanoate and Potassium
Preservative
A preservative is a substance or a chemical that is added to products such as food products, beverages, pharmaceutical drugs, paints, biological samples, cosmetics, wood, and many other products to prevent decomposition by microbial growth or by undesirable chemical changes.
See Potassium propanoate and Preservative
Propionic acid
Propionic acid (from the Greek words πρῶτος: prōtos, meaning "first", and πίων: píōn, meaning "fat"; also known as propanoic acid) is a naturally occurring carboxylic acid with chemical formula. Potassium propanoate and Propionic acid are e-number additives.
See Potassium propanoate and Propionic acid
Salt (chemistry)
In chemistry, a salt or ionic compound is a chemical compound consisting of an assembly of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions), which results in a compound with no net electric charge (electrically neutral).
