Xylitol Extra Pure
Whatsapp Order
Xylitol Extra Pure is a high-purity sugar alcohol widely used as a low-calorie sweetener and pharmaceutical excipient. It is a white crystalline powder that is odorless and highly soluble in water. Due to its non-cariogenic and humectant properties, xylitol is extensively used in dental care products, cosmetics, and food formulations, especially sugar-free products. In laboratories, it serves as an analytical standard and stabilizer. Xylitol is non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for various applications but should be handled with standard precautions to avoid dust inhalation. Proper storage in airtight containers protects it from moisture absorption and degradation.

Corn Syrup
Corn Syrup is a viscous, sweet liquid derived from the enzymatic hydrolysis of corn starch. It consists primarily of glucose and maltose along with higher saccharides, providing sweetness, viscosity, and moisture retention in food formulations. Corn Syrup is widely used in food and beverage industries as a sweetener, humectant, and texture enhancer. Its ability to prevent crystallization and retain moisture makes it essential in confectionery, baking, and processed foods. Industrial grades of corn syrup are also used in pharmaceuticals and other manufacturing applications where its binding and stabilizing properties are valued.
Fructose
Fructose, also known as fruit sugar, is a naturally occurring monosaccharide found in many plants, fruits, honey, and root vegetables. It is a simple sugar with a sweet taste and is one of the three dietary monosaccharides, alongside glucose and galactose. Fructose appears as a white crystalline powder, highly soluble in water, and is commonly used as a sweetener in food and beverage industries due to its high relative sweetness. It plays important roles in metabolism and is used extensively in the production of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and other sweetening agents.
