Xylitol is a chemical categorized as a polyalcohol or sugar alcohol.Target: OthersXylitol is a chemical categorized as a polyalcohol or sugar alcohol (alditol). Xylitol has the formula (CHOH)3(CH2OH)2 and is an achiral isomer of pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentol. Xylitol is used as a diabetic sweetener which is roughly as sweet as sucrose with 33% fewer calories. Unlike other natural or synthetic sweeteners, xylitol is actively beneficial for dental health by reducing caries to a third in regular

Properties
-
- Appearance:white crystalline powder
- Molecular Weight:152.14578
- Density:1.525
- Boiling Point:215~217℃
- Melting Point:92-96℃
- Flash Point:261.9 °C
- Storage Temperature:room temp
- Refractive index:1.3920 (estimate)
- Solubility:SOLUBLE
- Stability:Xylitol is stable to heat but is marginally hygroscopic. Caramelization can occur only if it is heated for several minutes near ist boiling point. ... Milled and specialized granulated grades of xylitol have a tendency to cake and should therefore be used within 9 to 12 months. Aqueous xylitol solutions have been reported to be stable, even on prolonged heating and storage.
