Corn Starch
Corn starch powder
APPLICATION The properties of starch are functions of its nature, appearance (warm- or cold-soluble) and the parameters of reaction (temperature, pH concentration, presence of other constituents, etc.). In the products of foodstuffs industry starch functions as: 1) a thickener - a gel is formed upon quick cooling, 2) a binder - allows homogenous dispersion of water in foodstuffs, 3) a texturizer - builds structure and mouth feel, 4) a stabilizer of foodstuffs. Starch is used in the production of: 1) puddings prepared by boiling in water or milk, soups, salad dressings (in combination with modified starches), bakery, products, various desserts, meat products. 2) Starch is also used as a moulding agent for gum, jelly and cream products And for that purpose starch must have lower moisture content: 8-9 %. 3) In the pharmacy, starch has its application in culture media and tabletting. 4) In the paper industry starch is used in the production of paper to improve the mechanical characteristics of paper, or as a raw material for 5) Manufacturing glue for corrugated board. 6) The main characteristic of starch, the function of sizing, is applied both in the textile industry and in households 7) Starch can also be used for preparing animal feed.
