Product introduction
The sweetness of sodium cyclamate is slower, but lasts for a long time, and the sweetness is relatively pure. It can be used instead of sucrose or mixed with sucrose.

The advantages of sodium cyclamate are better sweetness, lower bitterness than saccharin, and lower cost; the disadvantage is that the sweetness is not high, the dosage is large, and it is easy to exceed the standard.
