Saccharin Sodium CAS#128-44-9
Saccharin Sodium is an artificial, non-nutritive sweetener widely used as a sugar substitute. It is approximately 200 to 700 times sweeter than sucrose, though it may leave a slightly bitter aftertaste at certain concentrations. Saccharin and its salts are synthetic compounds rather than naturally occurring substances.
Due to its high Sweetening Efficiency and application versatility, Saccharin Sodium is commonly used in the formulation of various food and pharmaceutical products, including soft drinks, candies, biscuits, jams, chewing gum, canned fruits, medicines, and toothpaste.

Product Application of Saccharin Sodium CAS#128-44-9
Sodium Saccharin is the most common salt form of saccharin and is widely used in the preparation of soluble sweetening formulations. It is extensively used in oral care products such as toothpaste and mouthwash, as well as in diet soft drinks, syrups, baked goods, ice cream, and other sweetened foods and beverages.
Beyond food applications, Sodium Saccharin plays a significant role in the chemical and agricultural industries, including serving as an additive in the production of herbicides and pesticides. It is also utilized in metal treatment, such as in coating for metals like gold and nickel.
The food industry remains the primary sector for Sodium Saccharin, where it serves as a low-calorie sweetener and stabilizer in a variety of products. In bakery applications, it is used to enhance the sweetness of baked goods, bread, cookies, and muffins. Due to its excellent water solubility and rapid dissolution, it is particularly well-suited for use as an artificial sweetening agent in carbonated beverages and soft drinks.
