Product Application of XylitolCAS#87-99-0

Xylitol belongs to the polyhydric alcohol family and is a natural d-mannitol.html">sugar substitute. Commercially, it is produced by hydrolyzing plants rich in xylan (such as birch) into xylose. It matches sucrose in sweetness, dissolves rapidly, and produces a cooling sensation due to its negative heat of solution. It provides 24 kcal per gram. Typical applications include chewing gum, throat lozenges, and chocolate products.
