Short Description:

Acesulfame-K CAS 55589-62-3

Acesulfame potassium, commonly known as AK sugar, is a fourth generation artificial sweetener with a sweetness about 130 times that of sucrose. It has the characteristics of good taste, no calories, and is not metabolized or accumulated in the body, with stable physical and chemical properties.


Ansemei is stable to light and heat, and has a wide range of pH values. It is currently one of the most stable sweeteners in the world and is widely used in various foods. It mainly imparts sweetness to food, but does not cause severe blood sugar reactions. Ansemi was first discovered by the German company Hirst in 1967 and was first approved in the UK in 1983. Its sweetness is 200-250 times that of sucrose. In the late 1990s, China established industry standards for its products. With the continuous improvement of domestic production level of Acesulfame, its application scope in food processing has become increasingly wide, and it has a large proportion of exports.
