SORBITOL SOLUTION - Introduction
Sorbitol solution is a colorless to pale yellow viscous liquid, chemical name D-Sorbitol. It has a sweet taste and is soluble in water and many organic solvents.
Sorbitol solution has many uses. First, it is widely used in the food and beverage industry as a sweetener and stabilizer. Secondly, Sorbitol solution is also used as an additive in drugs and cosmetics to increase its consistency and sweetness. In addition, Sorbitol solution is used to prepare artificial fibers, plastics and chemicals.
Sorbitol solution is usually prepared by D-Sorbitol dehydration reaction. Specifically, D-Sorbitol is reacted with a dehydrating agent (such as sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid) under appropriate temperature and reaction conditions to obtain Sorbitol solution.
In terms of safety, Sorbitol solution is a relatively safe chemical. However, excessive intake of Sorbitol solution may cause diarrhea and indigestion. For some people (such as people with diabetes), the intake of Sorbitol solution may have an impact on blood sugar levels. Therefore, when using Sorbitol solution, it is necessary to follow appropriate dosage and precautions, and to operate in accordance with industry and food safety standards.
