Saccharin Supplier in Malaysia for Food and Plating
- Also known as
- O-Benzoic Sulfimide
- C7H5NO3S
Saccharin supplier for food, pharmaceutical, oral-care and electroplating buyers in Malaysia. This page covers saccharin free acid, CAS 81-07-2, a white crystalline high-intensity sweetener and process additive with a separate identity from sodium saccharin.
Food and pharmaceutical grades are selected for sweetening and taste-masking applications, while plating grades serve as secondary brighteners and stress-reducing additives in specified nickel baths. Each use sets different purity, impurity and particle-size expectations.
Free-acid saccharin is sparingly soluble in water compared with its sodium salt, so the chemical form matters to dissolution and processing. Buyers should state whether the requirement is for food, pharmaceutical, oral-care or metal-finishing use and provide the relevant acceptance specification.
Send the exact chemical form, grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Packing, available documents, quotation validity and delivery timing are confirmed for the offered saccharin grade.

Saccharin grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Food grade saccharin | fine white crystalline powder | — | High-intensity sweetening in food, beverage, tabletop and dry-blend formulations that specifically call for saccharin free acid rather than a more soluble saccharin salt. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Pharmaceutical grade saccharin | fine white crystalline powder | — | Taste-masking and sweetening in tablets, oral-care products and liquid or dry pharmaceutical formulations where the free-acid identity and grade are specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Electroplating grade saccharin | white crystalline powder | — | Secondary brightener and stress-reducing additive in selected nickel-plating baths, with chemical form, purity and bath acceptance limits defined by the plater. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about Saccharin
Is saccharin the same product as sodium saccharin?
No. Saccharin on this page is the free acid, CAS 81-07-2, while sodium saccharin is a separate salt with different solubility and specification. Buyers should name the exact chemical form required by the formulation or plating bath.
Why does the chemical form matter in a saccharin formulation?
Free-acid saccharin is only sparingly soluble in water compared with sodium saccharin. Dissolution method, pH, sweetener system and processing sequence therefore need to be considered before substituting one form for another.
What grades of saccharin can buyers specify?
Food, pharmaceutical and electroplating grades address different purity, impurity and application requirements. State the intended use and acceptance specification rather than relying on a generic grade description.
How is saccharin used in nickel electroplating?
Saccharin is used as a secondary brightener and stress-reducing additive in selected nickel baths. Provide the bath chemistry, required chemical form, purity and addition basis because plating specifications differ from food or pharmaceutical requirements.
What details are needed for a saccharin price enquiry?
Provide the free-acid identity, grade, assay and impurity limits, application, particle-size needs, quantity and delivery location. List any packing and technical-document requirements that must be addressed in the quotation.
How are saccharin packing and documentation arranged?
Pack format and available documentation depend on the selected grade, quantity and destination. The quotation confirms those details together with delivery route, timing and commercial validity.
