Corn starch Usage
Food Industry
Thickeners—Used to thicken soups, sauces, and puddings, giving foods a thick, smooth texture.
Bulking and Binders—In baked goods, candies, and snacks, they provide structure and texture and prevent sticking.
Starch Sugar Production—A key raw material for sweeteners and functional ingredients such as glucose syrup, high-fructose corn syrup, and maltodextrin.
Pharmaceutical and Personal Care
Tablet Excipients—Binders and disintegrants used in the production of tablets and capsules.
Talc Replacements—Used in baby powders and certain cosmetics, they absorb moisture and reduce friction.
Industrial Applications
Paper and Textiles—Used as fillers and sizing agents in paper to enhance its strength and smoothness; used in textiles as sizing to strengthen fibers.
Bioplastics—A renewable raw material, they are an important component in the production of biodegradable plastics.
