Product Typical Properties

Function

It has a cool and sweet taste, with a sweetness of 65% of sucrose and a low calorific value. It has good hygroscopicity and is widely used in industries such as food, daily chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Its application in food can prevent food drying, aging, extend product shelf life, and effectively prevent the crystallization of sugars and salts in food. It can maintain the strength balance of sweet, sour, and bitter flavors and increase food flavor. It can be obtained by heating and pressure hydrogenation of glucose in the presence of a nickel catalyst.

Product Usage

1. The daily chemical industry sorbitol is used as an excipient, humectant, and antifreeze in toothpaste, with a dosage of up to 25-30%. It can maintain the smoothness of the paste, with good color and taste; As an anti drying agent (instead of glycerol) in cosmetics, it can enhance the stretchability and lubricity of emulsifiers and is suitable for long-term storage; Sorbitan fatty acid esters and their ethylene oxide adducts have the advantage of low skin irritation and are widely used in the cosmetics industry. 2. Adding sorbitol to food in the food industry can prevent food from cracking and keep it fresh and soft. Used in bread and cake, it has a significant effect. Sorbitol has a lower sweetness than sucrose and is not utilized by certain bacteria. It is an important raw material for producing sugar free candies and various caries prevention foods. Since the metabolism of this product does not cause blood sugar to rise, it can also be used as a sweetener and nutrient for food for diabetics. Sorbitol does not contain aldehyde groups and is not easily oxidized. It does not react with amino acids during heating. It has a certain physiological activity of Chemicalbook, which can prevent the denaturation of carotenoids, edible fats, and proteins. Adding this product to concentrated milk can extend the shelf life and improve the color, aroma, and long-term preservation of small intestine. It has a significant stabilizing and long-term effect on fish sauce. It also has a similar effect in jam preserves.

3. Sorbitol in the pharmaceutical industry can be used as a raw material for the production of vitamin C; It can also be used as a raw material for syrup, injection infusion, pharmaceutical tablet pressing, as a drug dispersant, filler, cryoprotectant, anti crystallization agent, traditional Chinese medicine stabilizer, wetting agent, capsule plasticizer, sweetener, ointment matrix, etc.

4. Sorbitol rosin resin in the chemical industry is a common raw material for building coatings, which can be used as a plasticizer and lubricant in polyvinyl chloride resins and other polymers. Complex with iron, copper, and aluminum ions in alkaline solutions, used for bleaching and washing in the textile industry. Sorbitol and propylene oxide can be used as starting materials to produce rigid polyurethane foam with certain flame retardancy.
