Abstract: A method for producing a halohydantoin compound according to the present invention includes the steps of: (a) providing, in a dryer, a composition containing (i) at least one component selected from the group consisting of water, an organic solvent, and elemental halogen and (ii) a halohydantoin compound; and (b) drying the composition under reduced pressure in the dryer, the reduced pressure being reduced to a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure while introducing an inert gas from an outside source into the dryer.
Abstract: Methods of making and resultant acidulent/carbohydrate agglomerates. The acidulent may be citric acid having particle sizes ranging from about 1 micron to 20 microns agglomerated with a soluble carbohydrate co-agglomerate to formulate the various acidulent/carbohydrate agglomerates. In certain embodiments, the carbohydrate co-agglomerate may be maltodextrin to formulate citric acid/maltodextrin agglomerates. These citric acid/maltodextrin agglomerates are shelf stable when dry, have improved flowability, compressibility, mixability; dissolve easily and quickly in water; and provide an easy ready-to-use formulation that is suitable for use in compounding various food and pharmaceutical products.
