The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows TBHQ to be used alone or in combination (with BHA or BHT) for oil or fatty foods, including volatile essential oils, with a maximum allowable dosage of 200PPM. It can also be used in non-alcoholic beverages, margarine, and mixed nuts.TBHQ, also known as tert butyl hydroquinone, is a phenolic oil soluble antioxidant. TBHQ has high efficiency and stability, which can extend the shelf life of foods rich in oil and improve food safety.

Possible reaction pathways of 2,5-di-tert-butyl-hydroquinone (2,5-DTBHQ).Valgimigli et al. proposed a mechanism wherein semiquinone (2) reacts with molecular oxygen to produce 2,5-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (2,5-DTBBQ) and hydroperoxyl radical (HOO∙). The semiquinone (2) terminates a second propagation chain via either hydrogen abstraction (Reaction II) or addition reaction (Reaction IV) and these reaction pathways play a very critical role in the inhibition process.

Polymerization inhibitors MTBHQ, as an efficient polymerization inhibitor, plays a crucial role in the chemical industry. It can effectively prevent or slow down the polymerization reaction, thus ensuring the quality and stability of polymer products. The mechanism of action of Polymerization Inhibitors MTBHQ lies in its ability to react with free radicals in the polymerization reaction, thereby interrupting the growth of the polymerization chain. Free radicals are key species in the polymerization reaction that initiate chain reactions leading to the growth of polymer molecular chains.

At high temperatures, a series of complex chemical reactions such as oxidation, decomposition, polymerization, and hydrolysis are prone to occur, resulting in a rapid increase in the acid value, peroxide value, and carbon base value of roasted foods. In the later stage of storage and sales, unpleasant odors are easily produced. The use of TBHQ can effectively delay oil oxidation in pastry foods.However, the oxidation and rancidity of fats and oils, as well as the production of unpleasant flavors, are a problem that troubles many pastry food producers.

In view of the advantages of TBHQ and BHT, in recent years, BHT and TBHQ have become widely used antioxidants in fats and oil-rich foods . It should be pointed out that TBHQ and BHT have small molecular weights, are volatile and easy to sublimate, and under heating conditions, both volatilization and depletion are relatively fast, and the antioxidant performance will be generated through a series of complex redox reactions to produce the corresponding transformation products.

The unsaturated resin polymerization inhibitor MTBHQ (2-tert-butylhydroquinone) plays an important role in resin synthesis and other synthetic reactions. The following is a detailed analysis of its principle of action and effects:Effect Remarkable polymerization inhibition effect: MTBHQ is a kind of high efficient polymerization inhibitor for unsaturated resin. Under normal storage conditions, the general addition amount is only two ten-thousandths of the total amount of resin, and it can play a good effect of polymerization inhibition.

In the United States and China, the maximum allowable dosage of TBHQ in food is 200ppm,At present, the production of tert butyl hydroquinone both domestically and internationally adopts the tert butylation method of hydroquinone, as shown in Figure 2. According to different classifications of alkylation reagents.Both domestic and foreign patent literature have reported this process, such as using toluene or xylene as solvents, the selectivity and yield of this reaction are relatively ideal.

TBHQ has good oil solubility and thermal stability, and does not change in color after heating.They are only suitable for high water content oil and fat foods such as biscuits, instant noodles, artificial milk oil, and mayonnaise. When the oil contains a large amount of metal ions and oxygen, the addition of antioxidants can inhibit the formation of peroxides.Oxidized fish oil is harmful to human health, so it is important to prevent oxidation and improve the stability of fish oil.

The seed method first completely dissolves TBHQ in a small amount of oil or 95% alcohol solution, and prepares 5-10% TBHQ oil or alcohol solution. Then, directly or with a measuring device, it is added to the fat or oil and stirred evenly.The pumping method injects the TBHQ concentrated solution prepared by the seed method into a pipeline with a fixed flow rate and flow rate of fat or oil that needs to be stable at a specified proportion through a stainless steel quantitative pump.

At high temperatures, a series of complex chemical reactions such as oxidation, decomposition, polymerization, and hydrolysis are prone to occur, resulting in a rapid increase in the acid value, peroxide value, and carbon base value of roasted foods. In the later stage of storage and sales, unpleasant odors are easily produced. The use of TBHQ can effectively delay oil oxidation in pastry foods.Baked pastry foods require a higher temperature during the baking process, such as cakes and bread, which require a baking temperature of 160C~190C.

Using isobutylene as an alkylation reagent requires a reaction under closed conditions, which can also be catalyzed by strong acids. In a mixed solvent of xylene and ketone, 85% phosphoric acid is used as a catalyst [8], and isobutylene is added to synthesize tert butylhydroquinone. The selectivity of the single tert butylation reaction can reach over 90%. Cationic resin [9] can also serve as a catalyst for this reaction, but the effect is not very ideal.

When the oil contains a large amount of metal ions and oxygen, the addition of antioxidants can inhibit the formation of peroxides. When citric acid is combined with antioxidants, the higher the content of these impurities in the oil, the more obvious the synergistic effect. TBHQ has good oil solubility and thermal stability, and does not change in color after heating. It can be added before and after the deodorization process of oil.

At present, the most commonly used antioxidants for oils and their products are BHA, BHT, PG, TBHQ, and tocopherols. As for vegetable oils, their antioxidant capacity is in the order of TBHQ>PG>BHT>BHA. As for animal fats, the order of their antioxidant capacity is TBHQ>PG>BHA>BHT. For anhydrous milk fat, their antioxidant capacity is in the order of PG>TBHQ>BHA>tocopherols.
