Description
High-Quality Fine Sorbitol Powder D-Glucitol
Sorbitol, also known as D-glucitol, is a white crystalline sugar alcohol with the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O₆. It is a six-carbon sugar alcohol that occurs naturally in many fruits and berries, including apples, pears, cherries, and berries. Sorbitol is approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose but contains only 2.6 calories per gram compared to 4 calories per gram in sugar, making it an excellent low-calorie sweetener. This essential chemical compound is specifically formulated for food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, cosmetic applications, dental care products, industrial processes, and chemical synthesis requiring exceptional sweetening properties, moisture retention capabilities, and multi-industry performance.
At Chemicals & Process Equipment Limited, we supply high-performance Fine Sorbitol Powder D-Glucitol manufactured under stringent quality control standards and international food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial specifications.
