Abstract
A crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol having an oil absorptivity of 0.1 to 6.9 wt % and a bulk density of 0.60 to 0.75 g/cc when it is ground and classified to ensure that at least 70 wt % of the obtained particles should have a particle size of 16 to 50 mesh and a process for producing a crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol, comprising introducing air bubbles into a maltitol aqueous solution. According to this process, a crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol having high solubility and almost no moisture absorption is produced at a high work efficiency and a low cost in a short period of time.
Claims7
A crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol having an oil absorptivity of 0.1 to 6.9 wt % and a bulk density of 0.60 to 0.85 g/cc when it is ground and classified to ensure that at least 70 wt % of the obtained particles should have a particle size of 16 to 50 mesh.
A process for producing a crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol comprising dispersing air bubbles in maltitol aqueous solution, supplying the resulting aqueous solution into a kneader to form a plastic mass and grinding the mass.
A process for producing a crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol, comprising continuously supplying a maltitol aqueous solution containing air bubbles dispersed therein into an extruder having a slender kneading/cooling zone to knead and cool it to form a maltitol magma and continuously extruding the magma.
A process for producing a crystalline mixture solid containing maltitol, comprising supplying a maltitol aqueous solution into a kneader, kneading while air is contained in the solution to disperse air bubbles, keeping kneading and cooling the resulting solution to form a plastic mass and grinding the mass.
A process for producing a crystal line mixture solid containing maltitol, comprising continuously supplying a maltitol aqueous solution into an extruder having a slender cooling/kneading zone, kneading while air is contained in the solution to disperse air bubbles, keeping kneading and cooling the resulting solution to form a maltitol magma and continuously extruding the magma.
