Product Description

General description:

Chemical Formula: C4H4KNO4S

Acesulfame potassium, also known by ace K, acesulfame K, is an artificial sweetener used in foods. It is almost 200 times sweeter than sugar and is also found not to change blood insulin levels. Thus, it is commonly called as diabetic sweetener.Acesulfame K is usually mixed with other artificial sweeteners. The other two sweeteners masks the bitterness of acesulfame lave in our mouth. In its solid form, acesulfame-K is highly stable at room temperature, even in the presence of light. When in solution, its stability is dependent on pH and temperature. Glycaemic index of acesulfame potassium is zero and it is one of the cheapest sweeteners.

Application & Usage:

Anti-oxidant
Anti-microbial and anti-bacterial
Mild astringent
Cosmetics / Oral Care Products: for use in creams, cleansers, cosmetics, hair care and oral care
Preservative for creams, lipsticks and hairdressings
