A non-crystallizing sorbitol liquid for food, oral care, cosmetics and processing lines: around 70% dry substance, already dissolved, pumpable and metered straight into your batch - and documented to stay crystal-free at -18°C / 48 hours.
Grade statement: supplied as food grade and for cosmetic / daily-chemical applications (oral care, personal care and related industries); not a pharmaceutical grade. Figures below are taken from the accompanying Specification of Sorbitol Solution 70% (GG) and a reference Certificate of Analysis (Singsino, non-crystalline BP/USP) and are stated as product data, not as medical advice.
Sorbitol Solution 70% is the liquid form of D-glucitol (D-sorbitol), a sugar-alcohol sweetener dissolved in purified water to a controlled concentration. Unlike a powder you must dissolve, or a sucrose syrup that can recrystallize, this is a clear, colorless, syrupy liquid that is fully miscible with water and arrives ready to dose.
The name '70%' refers to the dry substance content: the specification window is 68.0% - 72.0% with about 28% - 32% water, and the reference lot measured 70.61% dry substance (water 29.2%). On the sweetness scale, sorbitol delivers roughly 60% of sucrose sweetness with about one-third fewer calories and a smooth, cool, pleasant taste.
| Identity card | Value |

| Water content | 28.0% - 32.0% (reference lot: 29.2%) |
Most ingredients do one thing. Sorbitol solution does two, which is why it shows up in everything from toothpaste tubes to sugar-free candy kitchens:
| Role | What the liquid delivers | Where it earns its place |
| Bulk sweetener | Rebuilds the sweetness and body that sugar removal creates - about 60% as sweet as sucrose with roughly one-third fewer calories | Sugar-free chewing gum, soft candy, confectionery syrups |
| Humectant / moisture manager | Holds water in the formula, slowing drying, hardening and premature crystallization | Toothpaste, mouthwash, creams, lotions, glazes and coatings |
| Process convenience | Already dissolved: pumps, meters and blends instantly - no dissolving step, no dust, no dissolution heat | Liquid dosing systems, continuous mixing lines, syrup production |
Add the third advantage - consistency. Because the dry substance is held to a tight 68% - 72% window and D-sorbitol content is verified per lot, your dosage stays repeatable drum after drum, season after season.
The single most important line on the specification sheet is the resist experiment: -18°C for 48 hours, non-crystal. This is not a marketing phrase - it is a laboratory test, and the reference COA records it as conforming.
What the test protects you from is the classic liquid-sweetener headache: sugar syrups and crystallizing sorbitol grades can throw sugar crystals when they sit in cold warehouses, winter shipping containers or slow-moving inventory. Crystals mean sediment, blocked pumps and inconsistent dosing. A non-crystallizing grade stays clear and homogeneous through that cold exposure, so your product comes out of the drum the same way it went in.
If your supply chain crosses winter routes, uses cold storage, or simply holds stock for months, this single property is worth more than any other line on the COA.
| Industry | Typical context | What it contributes |
| Sugar-free confectionery & chewing gum | Gum base, soft candy, deposited sweets, toffees | Sweetness and body without a crystallization risk inside the process |
| Syrups, sauces, toppings & glazes | Liquid systems that must stay clear and pourable | Humectancy plus a clean sweetness; low reducing sugars (<= 0.20%) protect color and flavor |
| Oral care | Toothpaste, mouthwash, dental pastes | Established humectant that keeps paste body and stops tubes drying out; mild clean sweetness |
| Cosmetics & personal care | Creams, lotions, gels, body-care products | Gentle humectant for moisture retention and smooth feel |
| Food processing & technical lines | Wherever a pumpable humectant is easier to handle than powder | Water-activity and moisture control without dissolving equipment |
These are typical formulation roles for liquid sorbitol. Always validate the final product against your own recipe and the food/cosmetics rules of your target market.
Two documents, one story: the specification sets the guarantee window, the COA proves a real lot inside that window. Reference lot results below come from a Singsino non-crystalline BP/USP COA (batch tested 20°C).
| Test | Specification | Reference COA result |
| Appearance | Clear, colorless, syrupy liquid, miscible with water | Colourless, syrupy liquid - conforms |
| Identification A (HPLC) | Principal peak similar to reference | Conforms |
| Identification B (angle of rotation) | +1.5° to +3.5° | Conforms |
| Identification C (characters) | Clear, syrupy liquid | Conforms |
| Dry substance | 68.0% - 72.0% | 70.61% (limit >= 70%) |

| Refractive index (20°C) | >= 1.4575 | 1.4605 |
| Specific gravity (20°C) | >= 1.290 g/ml | 1.304 g/ml (range 1.285 - 1.315) |
| Conductivity | <= 10 µS/cm | 6.4 µS/cm (resistivity, limit <= 10) |
| pH (50% solution) | - | 5.5 (range 5.0 - 7.0) |
| Test | Specification | Reference COA result |
| D-Glucitol (D-Sorbitol) | 72% - 92% (as documented) | 66.67% as dry substance (limit >= 50%) |
| D-Mannitol | - | 4.40% as dry substance (limit <= 6.0%) |

| Reducing sugars | <= 0.20% | 0.13% (limit <= 0.30%) |
| Reducing sugars after hydrolysis | <= 9.3% | - |
Note on units: the COA reports D-sorbitol and D-mannitol as dry substance (limits >= 50% and <= 6.0%); the specification expresses the D-glucitol window as 72% - 92%. With dry substance near 70%, both frames describe the same high-sorbitol, low-mannitol composition.

| Question | Answer |
| Food approval status | Sorbitol is affirmed as GRAS by the U.S. FDA and approved for use in the European Union (E420), Australia, Canada and Japan |
| What grade is this? | Food grade and cosmetic / daily-chemical grade; documented non-crystallizing quality (BP/USP/EP quality requirements per certificate) |
| What are the impurity limits? | Heavy metals <= 1.0 mg/kg, lead <= 0.5 ppm, arsenic <= 1.0 mg/kg, nickel <= 1.0 mg/kg, chlorides <= 10 mg/kg, sulphate <= 20 mg/kg |
| Is it cold-stable? | Yes - passes -18°C / 48 h non-crystallization test per specification |
Q: Is this a '70% sugar' syrup? - No. The 70% is dry substance, mostly D-sorbitol. Actual total sugars in the reference lot are just 4.1% and reducing sugars 0.13%.
Q: Does sorbitol solution crystallize in winter? - This non-crystallizing grade is tested at -18°C for 48 hours and remains crystal-free, which protects winter transit and cold storage.
Q: Liquid or powder - which should I buy? - If your line mixes liquids anyway, the solution doses instantly without dissolving equipment or dust. Powder suits dry blends where adding water is unwanted. Both are available from the same supply point.
Q: Why is sorbitol solution used in toothpaste? - It is a long-established humectant that keeps paste body and stops tube contents drying out, with a mild clean sweetness.
Q: What customs code applies? - H.S. code 3824 6000 as stated on the specification sheet.
Q: How is it supplied? - New plastic drums (250 / 270 / 275 kg), 1,300 kg IBCs, 20-24 MT flexible bags, or ISO-tank bulk.
Q: What documents come with delivery? - A lot-specific signed COA plus the full product specification; other export documents are confirmed with each order.
