Physical features

White crystalline powder. odorlessness. sweet taste. About 60% of the sweetness of sucrose. Has hygroscopic. Easy Soluble in water and heat, soluble in methanol, ethanol isopropanol and butanol, cyclohexano, phenol, acetone, acetic acid, DMF, pyridine and ethyl amide solution, slightly soluble in cold ethanol, almost not soluble in ethanol and other organic solvents. Sorbitol solution concentration in 50% tingible bacteria and mildew, 73 percent above under normal temperature can be easily crystallization. Crystalline sorbitol easy absorption tide. The relative density d, melting 51.47-110 ~ 112 degrees Celsius (water), 92-92.7 degrees Celsius (hydrate, then proportion (20) / 4. Is D20] [alpha 2 - (water).

Chemical features

Sorbitol and mannitol, Taylor, galacitiol alcohol for oil, chemical stability, sorbitol by air oxidation, and alkali doesn't work, By all kinds of microorganism fermentation, Heat-resisting performance is good, Under the high temperature (200 ° c) and do not break down, Sorbitol as six yuan alcohol, under high temperature conditions can generate generating sorbitol anhydride, dehydration, Under high temperature conditions can radiochemical, carbon chain rupture and glycol and glycol butyl alcohol; four, In the presence of catalyst with organic acid ester of esterification, condensation with aldehyde.

Main application

Mainly used as the production material of Vitamin C as well as in the industries of food ,toothpaste and chemicals.
