E1401 Acid treated starach

E1401 Acid treated starach

Product Description:
E1401 Acid-treated starch is a modified starch that is produced by subjecting native starch (such as corn, tapioca, or wheat starch) to an acid hydrolysis process. This process modifies the structure of the starch, resulting in changes to its properties and functionality.
Acid-treated starch is typically available as a white to off-white powder. The acid hydrolysis process breaks down the starch molecules, reducing their size and altering their characteristics. The resulting modified starch may have improved solubility, thickening properties, stability, and gel formation compared to native starch.

Product Applications:
Acid-treated starch serves various functions and finds application in several food products. Here are some common applications:
ood Industry: Acid-treated starch is used as a versatile ingredient in the food industry, providing the following functionalities:

Thickening and Stabilization: It is commonly used as a thickener and stabilizer in a wide range of food products, including soups, sauces, gravies, and dressings. It helps to enhance viscosity, improve texture, and stabilize the product.

Bakery and Confectionery: Acid-treated starch can be used in baked goods, such as bread, cakes, cookies, and pastries, to improve texture, moisture retention, and shelf life. In confectionery products, it aids in providing structure, texture, and stability.

Dairy Products: Acid-treated starch is employed in dairy-based products, including yogurts, puddings, and dairy desserts, as a thickener and stabilizer. It contributes to the desired texture, viscosity, and stability of these products.

Processed Meats: It can be used in processed meat products, such as sausages and canned meats, to improve texture, water retention, and binding properties.

Sauces and Dressings: Acid-treated starch helps in achieving desired viscosity and stability in various sauces, gravies, salad dressings, and condiments.

Non-Food Applications: Acid-treated starch may also have non-food applications, including:

Pharmaceutical Industry: It can be used as a binder, disintegrant, or filler in the formulation of pharmaceutical tablets, capsules, and powders.

Paper Industry: Acid-treated starch finds application in the paper industry as a sizing agent, enhancing the paper's strength, surface smoothness, and ink holdout.

Textile Industry: It can be used as a sizing agent for textiles, providing stiffness, crease resistance, and improved printing characteristics.
