SORBITOL LIQUID 70%

Sorbitol Liquid 70%: The Sweetener with Multiple Benefits

Sorbitol, also known as sorbitol, chemical formula C6H14O6, with D and L two optical isomers, is the main photosynthetic product of the rose family, mainly used as a sweetener, with a cool sweetness, sweetness is about half of sucrose, caloric value is similar to sucrose.

Chemical properties: white odorless crystalline powder, sweet, hygroscopic. Soluble in water (235g/100g water, 25℃), glycerol, propylene glycol, slightly soluble in methanol, ethanol, acetic acid, phenol and acetamide solutions. Almost insoluble in most other organic solvents.

Product features: Sorbitol, also known as sorbitol, hexanol, D-sorbitol, is a non-volatile polysugar alcohol, stable chemical properties, not easily oxidized by air, easily soluble in water, hot ethanol, methanol, isopropyl alcohol, butanol, cyclohexanol, phenol, acetone, acetic acid and dimethylformamide, widely distributed in natural plant fruits, not easy to be fermented by various microorganisms, good heat resistance. It is not decomposed at high temperature (200℃), and was originally isolated from mountain strawberry by Boussingault et al. in France. The PH value of saturated aqueous solution is 6 ~ 7, and it is isomeric with mannitol, tyrol alcohol and galactotol, which has a cool sweetness, and the sweetness is 65% of sucrose, and the caloric value is very low. It has good hygrometry, has a very wide range of effects in food, daily chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries, and can be used in food to prevent food drying, aging, extend the shelf life of products, and can effectively prevent the crystallization of sugar and salt in food, can maintain sweet, sour, bitter strength balance and increase food flavor. It can be prepared by heating and pressurizing glucose in the presence of nickel catalyst.

Application field:

1. Daily chemical industry

Sorbitol is used as excipient, moisturizer, antifreeze in toothpaste, adding up to 25 ~ 30%, which can keep the paste lubricated, color and taste good; As an anti-drying agent in cosmetics (instead of glycerin), it can enhance the extensibility and lubricity of emulsifier and is suitable for long-term storage; Sorbitan fatty acid ester and its ethylene oxide adduct have the advantage of little irritation to skin and are widely used in cosmetics industry.

2. Food industry

Adding sorbitol to food can prevent dry cracking of food and keep food fresh and soft. Used in bread cakes, there is an obvious effect. The sweetness of sorbitol is lower than sucrose, and it is not used by some bacteria, and it is an important raw material for the production of sugar-free candies and various anti-caries foods. Because the metabolism of this product does not cause blood sugar rise, it can also be used as a sweetener and nutrient for diabetic food. Sorbitol does not contain aldehyde group, is not easy to be oxidized, and does not produce Maillard reaction of amino acids when heated. It has certain physiological activity, can prevent the degeneration of carotenoid and edible fat and protein, adding this product in concentrated milk can extend the shelf life, but also improve the color and flavor of small intestine, and has obvious stability and long-term preservation of fish meat sauce. It works the same way in preserves.

3. Pharmaceutical industry

Sorbitol can be used as raw material for vitamin C production. It can also be used as a raw material for syrup, infusion, medicine tablet, as a drug dispersant, filler, cryoprotectant, anti-crystallization agent, traditional Chinese medicine stabilizer, wetting agent, capsule plasticizer, sweetener, ointment base, etc.

4. Chemical industry

Sorbitol resin is often used as a raw material for architectural coatings, and can be used as a plasticizer and lubricant in polyvinyl chloride resins and other polymers. In alkaline solution with iron, copper, aluminum ions complexed, used in textile industry bleaching and washing. With sorbitol and propylene oxide as starting materials, polyurethane rigid foam can be produced and has certain flame-retardant properties.

Package:275KGS/DRUM

Storage: Solid sorbitol packaging should be moisture-proof, stored in a dry and ventilated place, take out the use of attention to seal the bag mouth. It is not recommended to store the product in cold storage because it has good hygroscopic properties and is prone to clumping due to the large temperature difference.

In conclusion, sorbitol liquid 70% is a remarkable sweetener with exceptional attributes and a vast range of applications. Its moisture absorption abilities improve product quality and longevity across various industries. Whether used in food, pharmaceuticals, or daily chemicals, sorbitol liquid 70% delivers unrivaled benefits that contribute to enhancing consumer experiences. Remember to make an informed choice when selecting a supplier to guarantee the purity and reliability of this exceptional ingredient.
