Sugars
- ICUMSA 45: most common, easiest to dissolve
- ICUMSA 150: crystalline form with color, controlled within specified range, produced directly at the mill and without refining
- VHP 600-1200: “Very High Polarization” VPH is raw sugar, less moist and still with the layer of honey that covers the sugar crystal, so its color resembles honey
- Polarity at 20°C: 99.80° Minimum
- Sulfated ash content: 0.04% Maximum by Weight
- Moisture: 0.04% Maximum by Weight
- Magnetic particles: mg/kg 4
- Solubility: 100% Dry & free flowing
- Granulometry: Fine Standard
- ICUMSA: Colour 45 ICUMSA attenuation index Units (Method #10-1978) Maximum AS: 1 P.P.M.
- Colour: Brilliant White
- Reducing sugar: 0.010% Maximum in Dry Mass
- Radiation: Normal w/o presence of cesium or iodine SO2: mg/kg 20 heavy metals, toxic elements Maximum mg / kg basis Arsenic 0.50 Cadmium 0.05 Copper 1.00
- Lead 1.00 Mercury 0.01 Zinc 3.00
- Pesticide traces: Maximum mg / kg basis
- DDT 0.005 Photoxin 0.01 Hexachloran Gamma Isomer 0.005 Microbiological limits
