Why modify starch?
1. Improve properties: Modified starch can have higher viscosity, better gelling ability, different gelatinization temperature, more stable in acid or alkaline environment compared to natural starch.
2. Expand applications: Thanks to new properties, modified starch is used in many different products such as food, pharmaceuticals, paper, textiles, construction...
3. Increase production efficiency: Modified starch helps the production process become more stable, minimizes incidents and improves the quality of the final product.
