ScotlandLiquid sorbitol

Sorbitolum is a colorless, transparent, viscous liquid with a slight sweetness, widely used in industries such as medicine, light industry, food, and chemical. Here is a detailed introduction to it:

Product Overview:

Liquid sorbitol is a liquid product obtained by hydrogenation reaction of glucose as raw material, followed by filtration, ion exchange refining, evaporation and concentration. Liquid sorbitol is divided into daily chemical grade sorbitol and VC grade sorbitol according to the purity of the granules.

Product Features:

It has good moisturizing properties, which can keep food moist to prevent dryness, and also prevent sugar, salt, and other substances from crystallizing. Can maintain a balance of sweetness, sourness, and bitterness intensity. Enhance the flavor of food as it is a non-volatile polyol. So there is also the function of maintaining the aroma of food. It can also be used as a sweetener, stabilizer, preservative, etc. At the same time, it has the nutritional advantages of polyols, such as low calorific value, low sugar, and anti caries effects.

Main characteristics

Sweetener: liquid sorbitol has sweet taste and moderate sweetness, which can be used as a sweetener in food, beverage and other industries. Moisturizing property: good moisturizing property, which can replace glycerin in the production of toothpaste, cigarettes, cosmetics and other products. Hygroscopicity: it can prevent food from drying and cracking, keep food fresh, soft and stable. It has obvious stability and long-term preservation effect on fish paste, jam and preserved fruit. Physiological activity: it can prevent the denatured blood sugar effect of carotenoids, edible fats and proteins. Metabolism does not cause blood sugar rise, which is suitable for diabetes patients
