Description

Saccharated Lime CAS NO 8002-17-3 is a specialized chemical preparation primarily composed of calcium hydroxide combined with sugars, typically sucrose. This formulation is valued for its enhanced solubility and controlled reactivity compared to standard lime, making it a critical reagent in precise industrial and pharmaceutical processes. It is an essential material for manufacturers in sectors requiring meticulous pH adjustment, purification, or calcium supplementation, such as the sugar refining, pharmaceutical, and water treatment industries.

Application

• Sugar Refining: Used as a clarifying agent in the carbonatation process to remove impurities and non-sugars from raw juice.
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Serves as an alkalizing agent and a source of calcium in various medicinal preparations and synthesis processes.
• Water & Wastewater Treatment: Employed for pH correction, softening, and phosphate removal in industrial and municipal water systems.
• Food Processing: Acts as a processing aid and calcium fortifier in certain food products, where applicable under relevant food-grade specifications.
• Chemical Synthesis: Utilized as a mild base and calcium source in organic and inorganic chemical production.
• Construction Materials: Incorporated into specialized mortars and plasters where controlled setting properties are required.

Quality Control

Our Saccharated Lime is produced and tested under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Quality parameters are verified against established in-house specifications, which assess critical attributes such as assay, impurity profiles, and physical characteristics. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is provided with each shipment 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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
