Novel aspartame powders

摘要

A process is described in which compacted aspartame is treated by milling to produce aspartame powder having a substantial portion of particles less than 20 mum, while obtaining a greater bulk density than commercially available aspartame powders having similar particle size distributions. Air classification can also be used to produce an aspartame powder having a substantial amount of particles less than 20 mum and having a high bulk density. Aspartame powders having this particle size distribution and bulk density possess exceptionally good properties as regards to bulk density and flow.
