Application: As a stable and no calorific value sweetener, Acesulfame-K is widely used in various kind of food. Acesulfame-K is one of the most suitable sweetener for soft beverage because of it's high stability and good taste, it can be used in such foodstuffs as sweetener: soft drink, chewing gum, coffee (instant), tea, dairy product analogs, gelatins, pudding desserts, tabletop sweetener and baked food.Acesulfame-K can also be used in medicine and cosmetics, for example, syrup, toothpaste, lipstick, mouthwash and similar products.
Package: 25kg/drum
Transportation and storage: Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store out of direct sunlight in a cool, well-ventilated area.
