Sorbitol Powder (CAS No. 50-70-4, INS No. 420 / E420, H.S. Code 29054400) is a white, crystalline powder of the sugar alcohol D-Glucitol (D-Sorbitol) — also known as Sorbit or Sorbol — with the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O₆ and molecular weight 182.2 g/mol. It is manufactured in a single grade for food applications, conforming simultaneously to USP, BP, EP and FCC specifications.
As a polyol (sugar alcohol) bulk sweetener, Sorbitol Powder is about 60 percent as sweet as sucrose with one-third fewer calories, offering a smooth mouthfeel and a sweet, cool, pleasant taste. It is non-cariogenic — it does not promote tooth decay — and may be useful in products for people managing sugar intake, which makes it a preferred sugar substitute in sugar-free foods, confectionery and oral-care products.
Sorbitol has been used safely in processed foods for almost half a century. It is affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. FDA and approved for use in the EU, Australia, Canada, Japan and numerous other countries. With an assay of 99.5%, sorbitol purity of 98.8%, ultra-low moisture and a clean microbiological profile, this powder is a versatile, high-purity ingredient for food, beverage, oral care, cosmetic formulations. Every shipment includes a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Specification.
Food & Confectionery. In sugar-free chewing gum, hard and soft candy, chocolate, bakery products and desserts, Sorbitol Powder acts as the bulk sweetener that provides a smooth, cool sweetness while controlling sugar crystallization and retaining moisture for longer shelf life. Its free-flowing crystalline form blends easily into dry mixes and direct-compression processes.
Oral Care. Sorbitol is a recognized humectant and texturizing agent in toothpaste and mouthwash, helping maintain paste consistency and prevent premature drying — a core ingredient in this category worldwide.
Pharmaceutical. As an excipient conforming to USP / BP / EP specifications, it is widely used as a sweetening, bulking and bodying agent in chewable tablets, oral granules, lozenges, syrups and vitamin formulations, including directly compressible applications where particle size matters.
Cosmetics & Personal Care. Its moisture-retention and skin-conditioning properties make it a valued humectant in creams, lotions, body washes and other personal-care formulations.
Industrial & Technical. Crystalline sorbitol also serves as a humectant, plasticizer and crystallization inhibitor in various technical and industrial applications where water-activity control matters.
The product is manufactured to USP / BP / EP / FCC specifications for food and pharmaceutical application, is affirmed as GRAS by the U.S. FDA, and is approved for use in the EU, Australia, Canada and Japan. The COA confirms "the results conform to the Specification," covering appearance, assay, moisture, purity, sugars, density, optical rotation, pH, residue on ignition, heavy metals, particle size and microbiology. Complete documentation — COA and Specification — accompanies every shipment.
The product is described by grade and documented compliance; no therapeutic or medical claims are made.
