Description

Starch, Enzyme-Hydrolyzed CAS NO 65996-64-7 is a modified carbohydrate polymer produced through the controlled enzymatic breakdown of native starch, resulting in a product with tailored molecular weight and functional properties. This process is critical for creating ingredients with specific solubility, viscosity, and textural characteristics that native starch cannot provide. It is an essential functional ingredient for industries requiring precise rheological control and clean-label solutions, such as food manufacturing, pharmaceutical formulation, and paper production.

Application

• Food Industry: Acts as a texturizer, stabilizer, and fat replacer in sauces, dressings, soups, and low-calorie food products, providing smooth mouthfeel and enhanced stability.
• Pharmaceuticals: Serves as a versatile excipient in tablet formulations as a binder and disintegrant, and as a viscosity modifier in liquid and semi-solid dosage forms like syrups and creams.
• Paper & Corrugating: Used in surface sizing and coating formulations to improve paper strength, printability, and surface smoothness.
• Textile Industry: Employed in warp sizing to protect yarns during weaving and as a finishing agent to impart a desired hand feel to fabrics.
• Adhesives & Glues: Functions as a key component in remoistenable adhesives (e.g., envelopes, stamps) and biodegradable glue formulations.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Utilized as a natural thickener, stabilizer, and moisture regulator in lotions, creams, and powders.

Quality Control

Our Enzyme-Hydrolyzed Starch is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets the required specifications for parameters such as dextrose equivalent (DE), viscosity, pH, and microbiological purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided with every shipment. We can supply grades compliant with relevant standards, including Food Chemical Codex (FCC) and pharmaceutical excipient guidelines, ensuring safety and consistency for your application.

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); the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent caking or degradation due to moisture absorption. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
