Sorbitol has a cool sweetness, about half the sweetness of sucrose, and a similar calorific value. Sorbitol can be used as a raw material to produce vitamin C. Sorbitol has moisturizing properties and is used instead of glycerin in toothpaste, cigarettes, and cosmetics. Rigid polyurethane foams with flame-retardant properties can be prepared from sorbitol and propylene oxide. In the food industry, it can be used as a sweetener, humectant, chelator, and tissue regulator.
Sorbitol is a new type of sweetener made from high-quality glucose through hydrogenation, purification, and concentration. It is not as sweet as sucrose. It also has good moisture retention, acid resistance, and non-fermentation and is widely used in sugar-free food, functional food, beverage, cosmetics, chemical, and other industries.
1. Sweetener: Sorbitol is about 60% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar) but with fewer calories. It is used as a low-calorie sugar substitute in sugar-free and reduced-sugar products, such as sugar-free candies, gum, and diabetic-friendly foods.
2. Humectant: Sorbitol has a hygroscopic property, which means it can attract and retain moisture. It is used in various food products, such as baked goods, confections, and frozen desserts, to help maintain moisture and freshness, preventing them from drying out.
3. Pharmaceuticals: Sorbitol is used in pharmaceutical preparations as a vehicle or excipient in liquid medications and syrups. It helps improve the taste and stability of oral liquid medications.
4. Oral Care Products: Sorbitol is commonly found in toothpaste and mouthwash as a humectant, thickening agent, and sweetening agent.
5. Cosmetics and Personal Care: Sorbitol can be found in cosmetic and personal care products like skin creams, lotions, and shampoos, where it functions as a humectant and moisturizing ingredient.
6. Food Manufacturing: Sorbitol is used in the production of a wide range of food products, including sugar-free or reduced-sugar versions of beverages, dairy products, and baked goods.
