Product Description

Product Description

Sorbitol is also called D-Glucitol, Sorbol, D-Sorbitol, which is the main photosynthesis product of Rosaceae. It is white hygroscopic powder or crystalline powder, flakes or granules, odorless. Depending on the crystallization conditions, Soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol and acetic acid. It has a cool sweetness, the sweetness is about half of that of sucrose, and the calorific value is similar to that of sucrose. It will not cause dental caries when used as a sweetener.

Application

1. It can be used as a raw material for the production of vitamin C. Sorbitol can be obtained by fermentation and chemical synthesis. It can also be used as a raw material for industrial surfactants to produce Span and Tween surfactants.
2. Nutritional sweeteners, humectants, chelating agents and stabilizers. It is a special sweetener with moisturizing properties.
3. Synthetic resins and plastics, separation and analysis of low-boiling oxygen-containing compounds, etc. Also used as gas chromatography stationary liquid, thickener, hardener, insecticide, etc.
4. It can be used as a stationary liquid in gas chromatography for the separation and analysis of low-boiling oxygen compounds, amine compounds, nitrogen or oxygen heterocyclic compounds. Also used in organic synthesis.
5. It is used as a humidity conditioner for toothpaste, cosmetics and tobacco. It is a substitute for glycerin, its moisturizing property is milder than that of glycerin, and its taste is also better.
6. Diuretic dehydrating agent.
7. Aquatic water retention agent.
