25013-16-5
Chemically, BHA is a mixture of two isomers, 2-tertiary-butyl-4-hydroxy-anisole and 3-tertiary-butyl-4-hydroxy-anisole.
This mixture is commonly referred to as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA).
It is effective as an antioxidant in animal fats, but rather ineffective in vegetable oils.
It has good carry-through properties and because it is volatile, it can be used in packaging materials.
It is almost universally approved for human and animal use.
