Modified starch is one of the important raw materials for industrial production.

summary: Modified starch is based on the inherent characteristics of natural starch. In order to improve the performance of starch and expand its application range, physical, chemical or enzymatic treatment is used to introduce new functional groups on starch molecules or change the size of starch molecules and the properties of starch granules, thereby changing the natural characteristics of starch (such as: gelatinization temperature, thermal viscosity and its stability, freeze-thaw stability, gel power, film-forming, transparency, etc.), make it more suitable for certain application requirements. This secondary processing, change the nature of the starch is collectively referred to as modified starch.

The varieties and specifications of modified starch have reached more than 2000 kinds. Modified starch can be divided into physical modified starch, chemical modified starch, enzymatic modified starch and compound modified starch four categories. Physically modified starch includes: pre-gelatinized starch, ultra-high frequency radiation treated starch, metal ion modified starch, smoked starch, etc.; chemically modified starch includes oxidized starch, esterified starch, etherified starch, cross-linked starch, grafted starch, etc.; enzymatically modified starch includes amylose, dextrin, anti-digestion starch, etc.; complex modified starch, modified starch obtained by two or more treatment methods, it includes oxidized cross-linked starch and cross-linked esterified starch, among which the modified starch produced by chemical method is the most widely used.

As one of the important raw materials in industry, modified starch can be widely used in papermaking, food, textile, construction, medicine and other industries. Production enterprises should actively develop new products and expand the application fields of modified starch. If you want to purchase or sell modified starch with excellent quality, you can pay attention to sjgle food processing and packaging online, which is the portal platform of the whole ecological industrial chain of the food processing industry, bringing together upstream and downstream high-quality resource manufacturers such as modified starch raw materials, processing machinery and packaging equipment, as well as industry-wide information such as food exhibition activities and market information. Suppliers and purchasers of modified starch realize online procurement in sjgle food processing and packaging, realizing automation, which can reduce the manpower, financial resources and logistics invested by enterprises in regular transactions, and reduce procurement costs. moreover, direct communication and transaction can be realized online in sjgle food processing and packaging, thus realizing direct connection and interaction without going through intermediate links.
