Thin Boiling Starch

Thin Boiling Starch

Thin boiling Starch has low and uniform viscosity, which does not change much with temperature unlike native Starches which show wide variation in viscosity. Thin boiling Starches are manufactured by acid addition to native Starch slurry. Low viscosity enables its use in high concentrations without the viscosity getting too high. In some applications, for example in instant soups, thin without any specific technical function. Thin boiling Starch non congealing characteristic, transparency of past and lower viscosity ensure easy working compared to other modified Starches. Unlike gum and glues which require soaking, thin boiling Starch is readily dispersed in water and can be boiled into a smooth paste without any pretreatment. Its application in yarn weaving is particularly advantageous as it does not develop abrasive points on over drying and its flexible film gives the yarn the desired elasticity.
