Our product, High Quality Sorbitol CAS 50 - 70 - 4, is a well - known sugar alcohol. The CAS number 50 - 70 - 4 is a unique identifier for this chemical compound, which helps in accurate identification in the chemical industry. Sorbitol appears as a white, crystalline powder or granular solid with a sweet taste, approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose.
It has a molecular formula of C₆H₁₄O₆ and a molecular weight of 182.17 g/mol. Sorbitol is highly soluble in water, with a solubility of about 235 g/100 mL at 25°C. It has a melting point range between 95 - 105°C and a boiling point of 494.9°C at 760 mmHg. The density of sorbitol is around 1.49 g/cm³.
High Quality Sorbitol has a wide range of applications across various industries.
Food Industry: It is commonly used as a sweetener in sugar - free or low - calorie food products. Sorbitol provides a cooling sensation in the mouth, which makes it suitable for chewing gums, candies, and diabetic foods. It also acts as a humectant, helping to retain moisture and extend the shelf - life of baked goods.
Pharmaceutical Industry: Sorbitol is used as a diluent in tablet formulations. It can improve the compressibility of powders and enhance the dissolution of active ingredients. It is also used as a laxative due to its osmotic properties, which can draw water into the intestines and promote bowel movements.
Cosmetic Industry: In cosmetics, sorbitol serves as a moisturizer. It can help keep skin hydrated by attracting and retaining water, making it a common ingredient in lotions, creams, and shampoos.
Food Applications: When using sorbitol in food, it can be directly substituted for sucrose in most recipes, but usually in a slightly higher quantity due to its lower sweetness. It should be dissolved in water first if used in liquid - based products. For example, in making fruit jams, dissolve sorbitol in water along with other ingredients and then cook the mixture according to the jam - making process.
Pharmaceutical Applications: In tablet manufacturing, sorbitol is mixed with other excipients and the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The mixture is then granulated, dried, and compressed into tablets. For oral liquid medications, sorbitol can be added as a sweetening and stabilizing agent during the formulation process.
Cosmetic Applications: In cosmetic formulations, sorbitol is typically added during the emulsification process. It should be pre - dissolved in water and then added to the oil - in - water or water - in - oil emulsion at an appropriate temperature, usually below 60°C to avoid any potential degradation.
Case 1: Sugar - Free Chewing Gum
A chewing gum manufacturer wanted to develop a sugar - free product. They used High Quality Sorbitol as the main sweetener. By replacing sucrose with sorbitol, they were able to create a product that was not only suitable for diabetics but also had a longer shelf - life due to sorbitol's humectant properties. The cooling sensation provided by sorbitol also enhanced the chewing experience. After market testing, the sugar - free chewing gum gained significant popularity, especially among health - conscious consumers.
Case 2: Moisturizing Lotion
A cosmetic company incorporated sorbitol into their moisturizing lotion formula. The addition of sorbitol helped the lotion retain moisture better, providing longer - lasting hydration to the skin. In consumer trials, participants reported that their skin felt softer and more hydrated after using the lotion. This led to an increase in sales and positive customer feedback for the product.
