CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Color/Form | Crystalline powder |
|---|---|
| Taste | Intensely sweet |
| Melting Point | 100 °C |
| Solubility | In water, approximately 130 g/L at pH 5.0 and room temperature; solubility increases at higher and lower pH, and higher temperature |
| Stability/Shelf Life | Alitame is stable in dry, room temperature conditions but undergoes degradation at elevated temperatures or when in solution at low pH. Alitame can degrade in a one-stage process to aspartic acid and alanine amide (under harsh conditions) or in a slow two-stage process by first degrading to its beta-aspartic isomer and then to aspartic acid and alanine amide. |
| Other Experimental Properties | Solidifies at 102 °C, and starts decomposing at 136-137 °C |
