Potassium ores - Import export

E Number: E950 CAS Number: 55589-62-3 Acesulfame Potassium (Acesulfame K or Ace K) is a calorie-free sugar substitute. It is 200 times sweeter than sucrose (common table sugar), as sweet as Aspartame and one third as sweet as sucralose. Like Saccharin, it has a slightly bitter aftertaste, especially at high concentrations. Unlike Aspartame, it is stable under heat, and even under moderately acidic or basic conditions, allowing it to be used as a food additive in baking or in products that require a long shelf life. When used in soft drinks, it is often blended with other substitutes, such as aspartame and sucralose. Combining the sweeteners can help mask the bitter aftertaste and create the sensation of even greater sweetness. It can also be used as a sweetener in health / protein shakes and pharmaceutical products, where it can make some of the active ingredients taste more palatable.
