Acesulfame-K

1. Acesulfame-K   dissolves easily in water and its solubility is 27 grams at 20℃. Though it   can make food sweeter with good taste and no calories, it's not   nutritious.
2. Being characterized by no metabolizing and no absorbing in human bodies (it   is the ideal sweetener for the middle-aged and old, obese patients and   diabetics) as well as being stable to heat and acid, it is the fourth generation of synthetic sweetener in the world at present. It produces strong   and pure sweetness and the duration is longer than that of sucrose. Acesulfame-K is 200 to 250 times sweeter than sucrose.
3. Acesulfame-K is stable to light and heat (it can resist the high   temperature of 225℃) and has a wide range of application of PH value (PH=2-10).
4. As one of the most stable Sweeteners in the world, it doesn't absorb   moisture in the air and is stable to heat.
5. Acesulfame-K is widely used in various kind of food. Acesulfame-K is the   most suitable for soft beverage because of it's high stability and good   taste, it can be used in such foodstuffs as : soft drink, chewing gum,   coffee(instant), tea(instant), dairy product analogs, Gelatins, pudding   desserts, tabletop sweetener and baked food. Acesulfame-K can be also used in   medicine and cosmetics, for example, syrup, sugarcoating pius, toothpaster,   lipstick, mouthwasher and similar products.    

1. Dietary Foods and Beverages: Acesulfame K is widely used in diet sodas, juices, and other beverages labeled as having no or reduced calories. It helps maintain the sweet taste without adding carbohydrates or sugar.
2. Desserts and Sweets: In dessert mixes, ice cream, and various sweets, acesulfame K can replace sucrose to reduce the overall sugar content and calories.
3. Chewing Gum: It is utilized in chewing gums as a non-fermentable sweetener, which means it won't be broken down by bacteria in the mouth, leading to less formation of dental plaque and acid.
4. Confectionery: Candies, breath mints, and sugar-free gums often contain acesulfame K to provide sweetness without the negative oral health effects associated with regular sugar.
5. Tabletop Sweeteners: Acesulfame K may be found in blends with other sweeteners for use as a tabletop sweetener, providing a zero-calorie option for sweetening foods and beverages at home.
6. Yogurts and Dairy Products: Some low-carb or sugar-free yogurts and dairy products incorporate acesulfame K to maintain sweetness while controlling the carbohydrate count.
7. Sugar Substitutes: Acesulfame K is often combined with other sugar substitutes like aspartame, sucralose, or stevia to create a blend that provides a taste and stability comparable to that of sugar.
8. Pharmaceuticals: In some medicinal syrups and solutions where a sweet taste is desired but added sugar is undesirable, acesulfame K serves as an alternative sweetening agent.
9. Cooking and Baking: It can be used in recipes that call for sugar to reduce the sugar content, although its effectiveness can vary depending on the specific requirements of the recipe.
10. Oral Care Products: Mouthwashes and toothpastes may also contain acesulfame K to impart a sweet taste without promoting dental decay.
