General Description
Liquid Glucose, also known as glucose syrup, is a high-purity carbohydrate solution derived from the hydrolysis of starch. It is widely used as a functional ingredient across food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications. With its balanced sweetness, excellent solubility, and moisture retention capabilities, Liquid Glucose helps improve texture, enhance stability, and extend shelf life in finished products.
The syrup is available in multiple grades defined by its DE (Dextrose Equivalent), which determines sweetness, viscosity, and fermentability. This versatility allows manufacturers to select the ideal grade for specific formulation needs, whether it’s preventing crystallization in confectionery, improving softness in baked goods, or providing energy-rich nutrition in supplements.
Chemical Properties
• Molecular Weight: Approximate More Than 200
• Physical State: Liquid
• Boiling/Melting Point: 232.96°C
• Solubility: 450.5g/L(25 ºC)
• pH: 5.0-8.0 (25℃).
Technical Specification
• Liquid Glucose is available in multiple DE (Dextrose Equivalent) grades ranging from DE 10 to DE 40.
Higher DE values indicate higher sweetness and lower viscosity.
Applications
Liquid Glucose is a critical raw material in multiple industries that require controlled sweetness, texture stability, and moisture retention.
Confectionery: Used in candies, gummies, toffees, and chocolates to prevent crystallization, improve chewiness, and deliver consistent sweetness.
Bakery: Applied in bread, cakes, pastries, and dough-based products to enhance softness, extend shelf life, and improve browning and texture.
Dairy & Ice Cream: Used in ice cream, frozen desserts, and flavored dairy products to improve creaminess, reduce ice crystal formation, and enhance flavor release.
Beverages: Used in syrups, juices, soft drinks, and energy drinks to provide sweetness, body, and improved mouthfeel.
Pharmaceutical: Used in syrups, tonics, and oral rehydration solutions as a reliable carbohydrate source that improves palatability and stability.
Nutrition & Supplements: Used in energy gels, sports nutrition, and dietary supplements for fast energy release and easy digestibility.
Fermentation & Industrial: Used as a feedstock in fermentation processes and as a raw material in various industrial applications requiring consistent carbohydrate supply.
