Product Introduction
Sodium cyclamate is a synthetic sweetener known for its ability to provide sweetness without the calories associated with sugar. It is approximately 30 to 50 times sweeter than sucrose, making it a popular alternative for those seeking to reduce sugar intake. Sodium cyclamate is often used in combination with other sweeteners to achieve a more balanced flavor profile in food and drink applications.
Product Manufacturing Process
The manufacturing process of sodium cyclamate involves the sulfonation of cyclohexylamine followed by the reaction with sodium bicarbonate. This synthesis results in the formation of sodium cyclamate. The product is then purified through crystallization and filtration methods to ensure high purity levels suitable for consumption. Rigorous quality control measures are employed throughout the production process to meet food safety standards.
Product Applications
Sodium cyclamate is used widely across the food and beverage industry due to its sweetness and affordability. It is commonly found in diet sodas, sugar-free candies, and baked goods. Additionally, sodium cyclamate serves applications beyond food; it is often included in sugar substitutes and some pharmaceutical products where sweetness is necessary, but calories need to be minimized.
