Overview of Polydextrose
Polydextrose is a water-soluble, low-calorie polymer widely used as a bulking agent, sugar substitute, and fiber supplement in food, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical industries. Known for its excellent solubility, non-cariogenic properties, and prebiotic benefits, Polydextrose is commonly incorporated into low-calorie foods, dietary supplements, and functional ingredients.
In industrial applications, Polydextrose is valued for its consistent purity, neutral taste, and high stability. It is often used alongside Maltodextrin, Inulin, and Sorbitol, available on ChemicalBull for complete formulation and interlinking solutions.
