In the EU, ferrocyanides (E 535–538) were, as of 2018, solely authorized as additives in salt and salt substitutes, where they serve as anticaking agents. The kidneys are the organ susceptible to ferrocyanide toxicity , but according to the EFSA , ferrocyanides are of no safety concern at the levels at which they are used.
Anticaking agents are also used in non-food items such as road salt, [3] fertilisers, [4] cosmetics, [5] [6] and detergents. [7] Some studies suggest that anticaking agents may have a negative effect on the nutritional content of food; one such study indicated that most anti-caking agents result in the additional degradation of vitamin C added ...
Sodium ferrocyanide is a common anti-caking agent. Specialized applications involves their use as precipitating agents for production of citric acid and wine. [2]
“It’s also used in some products as a calorie reducer, an anti-caking agent, a thickener, and to add texture,” Caroline Susie, a registered dietician and national spokesperson for the ...
In the EU, hexacyanidoferrates(II) (E 535–538) were, as of 2017, solely authorised in two food categories as salt additives. It can also be used in animal feed. [9] In the laboratory, potassium hexacyanidoferrate(II) is used to determine the concentration of potassium permanganate, a compound often used in titrations based on redox reactions.

Calcium phosphates – mineral salt, anti-caking agent, firming agent; Calcium polyphosphates – anti-caking agent; Calcium propionate – preservative; Calcium salts of fatty acids – emulsifier, stabiliser, anti-caking agent; Calcium silicate – anti-caking agent; Calcium sorbate – preservative; Calcium stearoyl lactylate – emulsifier
Anticaking agents are chemical compounds that prevent caking. Some anticaking agents function by absorbing excess moisture or by coating particles and making them water-repellent. Calcium silicate (CaSiO 3 ), a common anti-caking agent added to table salt, absorbs both water and oil .
