Abstract
The present invention relates to the non-food and non-pharmaceutical use of a powder anhydrous dextrose composition, characterized by the fact that the composition has: a) a particle size such that: at most 4% of its particles (expressed as a volume) have a size at most equal to 40 microns, and at most 8% of its particles (expressed as a volume) have a size at most equal to 100 microns, b) a hygroscopic index less than 1%, and c) an apparent density larger than 0.7 kg/l.
