For any chemical or food ingredient, understanding its precise specifications is fundamental to ensuring quality, consistency, and suitability for intended applications. D-Xylose, identified by CAS 58-86-6, is no exception. This natural pentose sugar, widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries, requires adherence to specific parameters that guarantee its performance and safety. As a reputable supplier, we provide D-Xylose that meets or exceeds industry standards.

The primary specification for D-Xylose is its purity, typically measured by its D-Xylose content. Our product consistently offers a purity of 98.5% minimum, ensuring that manufacturers receive a high-grade ingredient for their formulations. This high purity is critical for applications ranging from sweeteners and functional food additives to pharmaceutical intermediates.

Beyond purity, several physical and chemical properties are crucial for quality assurance. The appearance of D-Xylose is typically a white crystalline powder, indicating its processed state. Key parameters like transmittance (98.0% min) and specific rotation (+18.5° to +19.5°) are vital indicators of its optical activity and freedom from contaminants. When you purchase D-Xylose, these metrics are important to verify.

Other critical specifications include loss on drying (0.5% max), which measures moisture content, and melting point (145-150°C), which confirms its identity and purity. Limits on residue on ignition, arsenic, heavy metals, sulfate, chloride, and free acid are also essential to ensure the product is safe for consumption and use in sensitive applications. Buyers seeking to purchase D-Xylose should always review these detailed specifications.

For manufacturers, understanding these specifications allows for better process control and product development. Whether you are using D-Xylose as a sweetener, a gut health promoter, or a raw material for xylitol, consistent adherence to these quality markers is paramount. As a dedicated supplier from China, we ensure that our D-Xylose consistently meets these critical benchmarks.
