Description

Calcium Saccharin Hydrate is the calcium salt form of saccharin, a high-intensity artificial sweetener. This compound is valued for its exceptional stability under heat and in a wide pH range, making it a reliable non-nutritive sweetening agent. It is primarily utilized in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries where a stable, calorie-free sweetener is required. Its application extends to industrial processes where sugar substitution is necessary for product stability.

Application

• Food & Beverage Industry: Used as a tabletop sweetener and in the production of diet soft drinks, low-calorie desserts, chewing gum, and canned fruits.
• Pharmaceutical Formulations: Employed as a sweetening excipient in syrups, chewable tablets, and liquid medications to improve palatability, especially in sugar-free products.
• Oral Care Products: A key ingredient in toothpaste and mouthwash formulations to provide a sweet taste without promoting dental caries.
• Animal Feed Additive: Used to enhance the flavor of feed for livestock and pets, encouraging consumption.
• Industrial Applications: Functions in electroplating baths and as an intermediate in certain chemical synthesis processes.

Quality Control

Our Calcium Saccharin Hydrate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. It can be produced to meet various pharmacopeial standards, including USP-NF and FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) specifications, ensuring suitability for food, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and other critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
