Chemical raw materials catalogue

Aspartame

Evaluate aspartame against formulation pH, thermal history and intended shelf life.

Erythritol

Erythritol contributes sweetness and bulk. Its cooling effect on dissolution and crystallization behavior affect the finished product.

Fructo-oligosaccharides

FOS products contain fructooligosaccharides of different chain lengths. Compare powders with syrups on a dry basis.

Fructose

Distinguish crystalline fructose from fructose-containing syrups. Identify the material and dry matter before comparing offers.

Galacto-oligosaccharides

GOS products differ in oligosaccharide composition, residual sugars and feedstock. These affect formulation and labeling.

Maltitol

Maltitol is available as crystals or syrup. Other polyols in syrup influence mouthfeel and flow.

Sodium Cyclamate

Verify that the proposed cyclamate is sodium cyclamate and check the intended use in the destination market.

Sorbitol

Sorbitol may be supplied as a powder or solution for moisture retention and sweetness.

Steviol Glycosides

Steviol glycosides are a mixture. Distinguish total glycosides from the proportions of individual glycosides.

Sucralose

Sucralose is a high-intensity sweetener. Compare neat material and carrier-based blends on an active basis.

Trehalose

Specify hydration state, sugar purity and particle size for the trehalose grade.

Xylitol

Xylitol crystal size and heat of dissolution affect perceived graininess and cooling.

Calcium Citrate

Calcium citrate's hydration state, elemental calcium and particle size affect its behavior in nutritional formulations.

Calcium Gluconate

Compare calcium gluconate on elemental calcium rather than total salt mass. Confirm its hydration state.

Dicalcium Phosphate for Food and Pharmaceutical Applications

Distinguish anhydrous dicalcium phosphate from the dihydrate and specify documentation for food or pharmaceutical use.

Calcium lactate

For calcium lactate as a mineral ingredient, hydration state and dissolution rate affect feeding.

Calcium lactate gluconate

Confirm component ratio, elemental calcium content and formulation compatibility for calcium lactate gluconate.

Copper Gluconate

When evaluating copper gluconate, check weighing accuracy and mixing uniformity at low inclusion rates.

Ferric Ammonium Citrate

Ferric ammonium citrate grades can differ in color and iron content. Record the specific grade.

Ferric Phosphate

When ferric phosphate is evaluated as an iron source, focus on particle size and dispersion.
