  • Applications

    Maltose hydrate (CAS 6363-53-7) is primarily used as a carbohydrate source in food processing, functioning as a sweetener and fermentation substrate in bakery, confectionery, and beverage applications, and contributing to texture and browning in prepared products. In pharmaceuticals, it is commonly used as a diluent and binder in tablet formulations, providing bulk and aiding compression. In industrial manufacturing, it serves as a feedstock for enzymes and as a component in the production of maltose syrups and other carbohydrate derivatives. It may also be evaluated as a humectant or moisture-retaining ingredient in cosmetics and personal care formulations.
