SORBITOL is used as softening agent to ensure better processing of fibres. Used in

textile printing pastes and textile finishes. When SORBITOL is used it gives sharp

outline, better colour yields and lustre.

PAPER INDUSTRY

SORBITOL increases the flexibility of paper, thus folding #**8alue is higher while the

length of rupture and elongation does not change abnormally.

PAINT INDUSTRY

It can be used as cost effective replacement of propylene glycol in liquid paint.
