SUNETT® ACE-K APPLICATIONS
MEDICATED CHEWING GUM
Sunett® Ace-K provides high solubility to medicated chewing gum for an initial burst of sweetness by incorporating it into the shell of a coated pellet gum or in the powder coating of stick gum. For a slower release of sweetness, it can be encapsulated to deliver longer chew duration. It has great synergy with other sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose and can even be paired with sugar to boost the sweetness as needed.
GRANULES, POWDERS, AND EFFERVESCENT TABLETS
Sunett® Ace-K is an ideal sweetener for oral granules and powders due to its excellent stability, fast dissolution, and quick onset of sweetness when reconstituted. It can be added to the effervescent tablets to provide a more pleasant taste not just by adding sweetness but also masking the taste of active ingredients.
ORAL SOLUTIONS, SUSPENSIONS, AND SYRUPS
Sunett® Ace-K has excellent sweetness synergy to replace sweetness that’s lost when reducing or replacing sugar in liquid pharmaceutical products. Its stability makes it a great sweetener choice that won’t negatively interact with other ingredients in the formulation. It will dissolve quickly and completely without breaking down.
