Potassium Metabisulfite E224 is a chemical in crystalline powder form. The main use of this white powder is as a food additive. It is utilized in brewery and textile industries as well. The potassium salt of sulphurous acid is used in preserved fruits, pickle, fruit juice, frozen vegetables, etc., as a synthetic food preservative. It forms potassium sulphate on reaction with oxygen, and sulphurous acid in acidic conditions. The food that contains Potassium Metabisulfite E224 often loses some of its vitamin content. People who are intolerant to natural sulphite must avoid sulphites (E221 – E228).
