Modified Starch

Introduction:

Natural starch has been popularly used in many industries. Different applications require different properties of starch. In addition, due to the improvement of production technologies and unceasing development of new products, the stricter needs for starch properties and suitability for its use are required. The properties of natural starch don’t meet sufficiently requirements in the application and processing. As a result, it is necessary to modify starch properties in order to get starch which has properties meet all requirements. Modified starch technologies such methods as: chemical modification, physical or enzyme modification… in order to change within starch granules aiming to change natural properties of starch suitably.

These modified starches can have practical applications in the following fields: textile, pulp and paper, food, feedstuff, foundry, pharmaceuticals and oil drilling. Vedan Vietnam has foreseen the great potentiality of Tapioca starch production in Vietnam and invested large human forces and material resources to comprehensively deploy and promote modified starch production. Currently, the company has been developing the variety of modified starches for wide applications in many industries.

Dual Acetylated Modified Starch and Phosphated Starch:
Cross-linked starch thanks to the acetylating process to form more stable linkage called as Dual Modified Starch and it simultaneously shows properties and functions of Acetylated Starch and phosphated starch.
Excellent freeze-thaw stability, better gel clarity, high temperature resistance, stability in acid environment and strong agitation all are improved. Excellent performance in food processing popularly comprises yogurt, soya sauce,    chili sauce, tomato sauce, soups, gravies, puddings, jellies, ham and sausages, canned foods and frozen foods
