Colourless to white Crystalline powder; odourless, with strong sweetness, about 150 times sweeter than sucrose, and the taste properties are similar to those of saccharin. There is a bitter taste when the concentration is high. It has good mixing and stability with sugar alcohol, sucrose, etc. The melting point is about 225℃, the maximum Chemicalbook absorption spectrum is 227nm, and the density is 1.83g/cm3 (loose density 1.1~1.3kg/dm3). It does not absorb moisture and is stable at room temperature. It is easily soluble in water (30g/100ml, 20℃) and slightly soluble in ethanol and other organic solvents.
