Usage

Description

Brominated Vegetable Oil (BVO) is a vegetable oil that has been combined with bromine to increase its density to that of water. This modification allows for the dissolution of flavoring oils, making it suitable for use in various applications.

Uses

Used in Beverage Industry:
Brominated Vegetable Oil is used as an emulsifier for flavoring oils in fruit drinks. The increased density of the oil helps to create stable finished beverages by preventing the formation of a ring or white precipitate, which can occur if the oil phase gravity is too low or too high, respectively.
Used in Formulating Cloud Agents:
Brominated Vegetable Oil is also utilized in the formulation of cloud agents, which are substances that create a cloudy appearance in beverages. Its use in this application is limited to 15 parts per million (ppm) to ensure safety and effectiveness.
