Product Description

Modified Starch, a versatile, functional ingredient created through controlled acid hydrolysis of native starch. This high-quality starch offers improved solubility, reduced viscosity, and superior film-forming and gelling capabilities making it ideal for a wide range of applications in the food, paper, textile, and pharmaceutical industries.

Known for its excellent freeze-thaw stability, enhanced clarity, and rapid hydration, acid-modified starch is a preferred choice in confections, sauces, and puddings, where consistent texture and stability are essential. It also plays a critical role in the manufacture of adhesives, coatings, and biodegradable packaging materials, where strong bonding and smooth finish are key.

Sourced from non-GMO materials and processed under strict quality control, our acid-modified starch delivers reliable performance and clean labeling advantages for manufacturers seeking innovation and efficiency.



Superior Performance Across Industries

Engineered via acid hydrolysis, acid-modified starch offers enhanced performance beyond native starches. Its ability to function as a stabilizer, binder, and thickener makes it invaluable in food processing, pharmaceuticals, adhesives, textiles, and paper manufacturing. The lower viscosity and gelatinization temperatures provide manufacturers with flexibility for various formulations.


Safe, Consistent, and Adaptable

Acid-modified starch is non-toxic and non-hazardous when used as intended. With a maximum moisture content of 14% and ash content below 0.2%, it assures consistent purity and quality. Its neutral flavor and high solubility ensure seamless incorporation into products. Shelf life ranges from 12 to 24 months when stored in cool, dry conditions.

FAQ's of Acid-modified starch:


Q: How is acid-modified starch produced?

A: Acid-modified starch is created by treating native starch with controlled amounts of food-grade acid. This hydrolysis breaks down some of the starch molecules, resulting in altered viscosity, improved solubility, and a lower gelatinization temperature compared to the original starch.

Q: What are the primary benefits of using acid-modified starch?

A: The main benefits include its ability to act as an efficient thickener, binder, stabilizer, and film-forming agent. It also offers improved solubility in cold water, a neutral flavor, and lower gelatinization temperatures, making it suitable for various modern industrial and food applications.

Q: In which industries can acid-modified starch be used?

A: Acid-modified starch finds application in food processing, adhesives, textile, paper, and pharmaceutical industries, thanks to its versatile physical and chemical properties.

Q: How should acid-modified starch be stored and what is its shelf life?

A: It should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in its original HDPE or paper packaging. Under these conditions, acid-modified starch maintains its quality for 12 to 24 months.

Q: Is acid-modified starch gluten-free and safe for consumption?

A: Acid-modified starch is generally gluten-free, depending on the source material, and is recognized as non-toxic and non-hazardous under normal use. Always verify the starch source for specific allergen information.

Q: What is the process for using acid-modified starch in formulations?

A: The starch powder should be dispersed in cold water with agitation to achieve full solubility. The required quantity varies based on the desired viscosity or thickening effect in the specific application.
