Characters: white crystalline powder; odorless, slightly sweet flavor; micro-wet primer. Dissolve in water, dissolve in ethanol. 5.48% aqueous solution of isotonic solution.
Functional feature
1. Sorbitol can avoid tooth decay. FDA of USA approves the sugar-free food added with Sorbitol can be marked also “Anti-cariogenic”.
2. Low-calorie, low sweetness: a pleasant cool and sweet, the sweetness is about 0.5-0.7 times sucrose. One grams sorbitol in the human body produce 16.722KJ calories, will not converted to glucose in the blood after consuming, will not impacted by insulin.
3. Stable:Easily dissolve in water, insoluble in organic solvents, good acid and heat resistance. Can withstand 200 degree heat and does not change color, is good to mix used with other additives like amino acids, proteins, etc. will not have Maillard Browning Reaction.
4. Moisture: Good moisturizer as glycerol. Alternative of glycerol, can make products such as toothpaste, food to maintain a certain moisture to prevent drying, to prevent crystallization of sugar, salt. Non-volatile polyol, can keep the original flavor of the food. Good moisturizer, stabilizer and anti-crystallizing agent.
5. Complexation: sorbitol can complex with A1 metal ions to prevent their precipitation.
