Revision as of 07:41, 11 December 2009

In food science, an anticaking agent is a food additive that reduces the tendency of components of food to adhere to one another.[1] An anticaking agent is usually a simple salt which is not hygroscopic. They are frequently used in foodstuffs that are supplied in a dry powder or granular form, such as table salt or sugar, where they act as dry lubricants between the individual grains. However, they may be used (depending on national regulations) on any foodstuff which has a tendency to stick together when exposed to atmospheric moisture: the European Union allows the use of anticaking agents for rice and on the outside of sausages, for example.
