Sorbitol, a transparent liquid formed when the highly hygroscopic sorbitol dissolves in water, exhibits a sweet taste (with a sweetness equivalent to 60% of that of sucrose) and chemical stability. Its key applications include:
1. Food industry: It serves as a low-calorie sweetener in sugar-free candies and chewing gum, while also acting as a humectant to extend the shelf life of baked goods;
2. Pharmaceutical field: It is used as an osmotic pressure regulator in injections, an excipient in oral medications, and a laxative;
3. Cosmetics: Owing to its hygroscopicity, it is applied in facial masks, toothpaste, and other products.
4. Industrial sector: It functions as a raw material for surfactants and a plasticizer in papermaking.
Maltitol is primarily used in high-end food products, such as sugar-free candies, chewing gum, chocolate, baked goods, and ice cream. In the pharmaceutical industry, maltitol serves as a pharmaceutical excipient. Additionally, it can be used as a plasticizer for gelatin capsules.
