Dextrose Monohydrate - Hot Selling

October 30, 2025

Dextrose Monohydrate is an organic compound, usually appearing as a white granular powder with a high gloss. Dextrose Monohydrate is readily soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol. Dextrose Monohydrate is stable at room temperature and pressure, but contact with oxidants should be avoided.

In the food and beverage industries, Dextrose Monohydrate is widely used as a sweetener, nutrient, and filler. It increases the sweetness of food, improves taste, and provides energy needed by the human body. Globally, food-grade Dextrose Monohydrate accounts for 87.31% of the market.

Currently, the competitive landscape of my country's Dextrose Monohydrate industry is gradually consolidating. The combined market share of the top 5 companies increased from 40% in 2020 to 45% in 2024, and is projected to reach 48% in 2025. Leading companies leverage their technological, brand, and cost advantages to continuously expand their market share, producing high-quality, diversified products and strengthening cooperation with downstream customers through established sales networks.

The price of Dextrose Monohydrate is affected by factors such as raw material costs, market supply and demand, and policies. Corn is the primary raw material, and fluctuations in corn prices significantly impact production costs. For example, a 15% increase in corn prices in 2023 led to an approximately 10% increase in the production cost of Dextrose Monohydrate, resulting in a price increase of around 8%. Prices rise when market demand is strong and supply is insufficient, such as during the peak summer beverage production season when demand for food-grade Dextrose Monohydrate increases, leading to a certain degree of price increases. Government policies regulating raw material prices may indirectly stabilize the price of Dextrose Monohydrate.

Why is Dextrose Monohydrate favored by the public? It has the following advantages:

Advantages of solubility and stability

Moderate solubility of Dextrose Monohydrate: Its solubility at room temperature is about 91g/100ml, slightly lower than anhydrous glucose, but it is easier to prepare isotonic solutions, such as oral rehydration salts, which are suitable for regulating body fluid balance. ‌‌

Outstanding stability: The crystalline water structure makes Dextrose Monohydrate less prone to Maillard reaction (food browning) at room temperature, making it suitable as a food additive; Low moisture absorption, easy to store and transport. ‌‌

Absorption efficiency and application scenarios

Monohydrate glucose Mild absorption: the dissolution rate is slow due to the presence of crystal water when taking orally, which can avoid the sudden rise of blood sugar, and is suitable for emergency supplement or recovery after exercise for diabetes patients. ‌‌

Widely used:

Food industry: Monohydrate glucose is used for sports drinks, baby food, etc., providing mild energy and low cost. ‌‌

Medical field: Monohydrate glucose can rapid energy replenishment (5-minute blood transfusion), correction of hypoglycemia, auxiliary intravenous infusion, and medical operation preparation. ‌‌
