Sodium saccharin, also known as soluble saccharin, is the sodium salt form of saccharin with two waters of crystallization. Its characteristics are as follows:
Physical properties: Saccharin sodium is in the form of white prismatic crystals, odorless or slightly aromatic, and tastes extremely sweet and bitter. It weathers slowly in the air, losing about half of its crystal water and turning into a white powder. Its molecular weight is 205.17, and its melting point ranges from 226 to 231°C.
Chemical properties: Saccharin sodium is easily soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. The sweetness of its dilute aqueous solution is about 300 to 500 times that of sugar, and the sweetness threshold is about 0.00048%. In addition, the thermal stability of sodium saccharin in aqueous solution is better than that of saccharin, and it will not change even if heated at 100°C for two hours. However, after being left for a long time, the sweetness of its aqueous solution will gradually decrease.
Saccharin sodium has a wide range of applications, as follows:
Food industry: Saccharin sodium is a commonly used sweetener in the food industry, especially in cold drinks, beverages, jelly, popsicles, pickles, preserves, pastries, preserved fruits, protein sugar and other products. Due to its high sweetness, it is also used as a sweetening diet for diabetics.
Feed additives: In animal husbandry, saccharin sodium is used as an additive in pig feed and other sweeteners to improve the taste and acceptability of the feed.
Daily chemical industry: In daily chemical products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, and eye drops, saccharin sodium also plays an important role as a sweetener.
Electroplating industry: Electroplating grade sodium saccharin is mainly used as a brightener for electroplated nickel. By adding a small amount of sodium saccharin, the brightness and softness of electroplated nickel can be improved.
