Product Description
Glucose, molecular formula C6H12O6. It is the most widely distributed and important monosaccharide in nature. It is a polyhydroxyaldehyde. Pure glucose is a colorless crystal, sweet but not as sweet as sucrose. It is easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol, and insoluble in ether. The optical rotation of natural glucose aqueous solution is to the right, so it belongs to "dextrose".
Glucose plays an important role in the field of biology. It is the energy source and metabolic intermediate product of living cells, that is, the main energy supply substance of organisms. Plants produce glucose through photosynthesis. It is widely used in candy manufacturing
Product Parameters
At present, glucose is mainly used in thouse industries;
(1) Food industry At present, crystallized glucose is mainly used in the food industry. With the improvement of living standards and the continuous development of science and technology in the food industry, glucose is increasingly used in the food industry. The food industry will still be the largest market for a long time to come.
(2) Chemical industry Glucose is also widely used in industry. It is used as a reducing agent in the printing, dyeing and tanning industry. Glucose is also commonly used as a reducing agent in the mirror-making industry, thermos bottle silver plating, glass fiber silver plating and other chemical silver plating industries.
(3) Synthesis and transformation Glucose can be synthesized or converted into other products through hydrogenation, oxidation, isomerization, alkaline degradation, esterification, acetalization, etc. Such as hydrogenation to produce sorbitol; oxidation to produce glucuronic acid, diacid, etc.
