Description

Starchsodiumsuccinate CAS NO 37231-92-8 is a chemically modified starch derivative, specifically the sodium salt of starch succinate. This modification significantly enhances its functional properties, making it a valuable ingredient for applications requiring improved stability, texture, and processability. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the food, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries seeking effective and versatile hydrocolloids and excipients.

Application

• Food Industry: Used as a thickener, stabilizer, and texture modifier in sauces, dressings, dairy products, and baked goods to improve mouthfeel and shelf-life.
• Pharmaceutical Formulations: Serves as a binder, disintegrant, and controlled-release matrix agent in tablet and capsule manufacturing.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as a viscosity enhancer, emulsion stabilizer, and film-forming agent in lotions, creams, and hair care products.
• Industrial Applications: Employed as a biodegradable adhesive, binder in paper coatings, or a sizing agent in the textile industry.
• Technical & Specialty Chemicals: Acts as a component in water treatment formulations or as a base for further chemical synthesis.

Quality Control

Our Starchsodiumsuccinate is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch is tested against rigorous in-house specifications to ensure consistent performance, purity, and safety. Depending on the grade, specifications may align with relevant standards such as FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) or USP/NF (United States Pharmacopeia). A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent caking or degradation due to moisture absorption.
