Basic information broadcast editing Chinese alias: methyl maltol; 2-Methyl-3-hydroxy-4-pyranone; 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyranoneChemical Name: 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyranoneMolecular Formula: C6H6O3Molecular Weight: 126.11Physical and Chemical Properties: Melting Point: 160-164°Cboiling Point: 170°C (10 mmHg)Water solubility 1.2 g/100 mL (25°C)Properties: This product is a white crystalline powder, with a special aroma of caramelized cream hard candy, and a strawberry-like aromatic flavor in the dilute solution. 1 gram of this product is soluble in approximately 80 ml of water, 21 ml of ethanol, 81 ml of glycerin or 28 ml of propylene glycol. [2] Storage: This product should be sealed in the dark, placed in a cool and dry place, avoid mixing with miscellaneous odor items, and cannot be in direct contact with iron. Product DescriptionBroadcast Edit Maltol, Ethyl Maltol and Diacetyl Maltol are 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds, and these compounds are weak mutagens in the Ames test. However, no cases of illness have been found in people who consume these substances from normal food sources. Toxicity tests conducted in dogs have shown that maltol and ethyl maltol are rapidly converted into non-toxic glucuronic acid derivatives when taken orally, and the same process can occur in humans. In fact, the amount of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds that people consume through food is quite large, and it is by no means limited to maltol and ethyl maltol. Most of the intermediates for enzymatic browning and non-enzymatic browning reactions in food are 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds, which are weak mutagens in Ames experiments, but there is no evidence that these substances have carcinogenic activity. This product is a white crystalline powder with a special taste of caramelized hard candy, and can give out a strawberry-like aroma when dissolved in a dilute solution. This product is a broad-spectrum flavor synergist, with the effect of flavoring, fixing fragrance and sweetening, and can be used to prepare food flavors, cosmetic flavors, etc., which are widely used in food, beverage, wine, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and other industries.
