Description

Dextrin, Hydrogen 1-Octenylbutanedioate is a chemically modified starch derivative, specifically an octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modified dextrin. This modification imparts valuable amphiphilic properties, making it an effective emulsifier and stabilizer for demanding formulations. It is a critical ingredient for manufacturers in the food, pharmaceutical, and personal care industries seeking to improve texture, shelf-life, and emulsion stability in their products.

Application

• Food Industry: As a key emulsifier and stabilizer in beverage emulsions (clouding agents), flavor oils, salad dressings, and spray-dried powders.
• Pharmaceuticals: Used as an excipient for encapsulation of active ingredients, a tablet binder, and a stabilizer in suspensions and emulsions.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as an emulsifier and texture enhancer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Industrial Applications: Acts as a dispersant, binder, or film-forming agent in adhesives, coatings, and agrochemical formulations.
• Microencapsulation: A preferred wall material for the encapsulation of sensitive oils, vitamins, and flavors due to its excellent emulsifying and film-forming properties.
