SciencePedia  Co., Ltd. ( SPC ) is professionally offer wide range of chemicals for starch modification.  We have dealed with well-know manufacturers in Europe, America and Asia.  Our Products have been proved by many starches companies that the performance is in the top range. Here below is the listed of chemicals for starch modification.

 

 

ACETIC ANHYDRIDE
Product by India
APPLICATION : Acetic Anhydride offers acetyl group to produce Acepic Acetylated starch.  Starch in which some of the hydroxyl groups have been esterified with acetyl groups by treatment with Acetic Anhydride.

OCTENYL SUCCINIC ANHYDRIDE
Product by USA
APPLICATION :  Octenyl Succinic Anhydride (OSA) is used for starch alkenyl succinate.  It is a chemically modified starch produced by treating with alkenyl succinic anhydride under controlled pH conditions.  Commercial alkenyl succinic anhydride is available for use in food in octenyl form.  These starches have lipophilic (“oil-loving”) properties and are used in emulsions and encapsulation.

SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE
Product by Thailand
APPLICATION :  Sodium Hypochlorite is used for producing Oxidized starch.  It is a starch which has been modified by treatment with oxidizing agent(s) – in commercial practice usually Sodium Hypochlorite.  This commercial oxidized starch is granular and is insoluble in cold water.  It is characterized by a whiter color than native starch, increased paste clarity and a low, stable viscosity on storage of the paste.

SODIUM HYDROXIDE
Product by Thailand
APPLICATION : Sodium Hydroxide is mainly used for pH adjustment in the process of producing Cationic starch.

HYDROCHLORIC ACID
Product by Thailand
APPLICATION :  Hydrochloric Acid is used mainly for pH adjustment.  Hydrochloric Acid can be used a trace levels to product Dextrins which is a starch hydrolysis products.

SODIUM MONOCHLORO ACETATE
Product by India
APPLICATION :  SMCA is used for producing Carboxymethyl starch.  It is a starch ether in which some of the available hydroxyl groups of the starch have been etherified by carboxymethyl.

PHOSPHORUS OXY CHLORIDE
Product by UK
APPLICATION :  PoCl3 is used for producing Distarch phosphate.  It is a starch which is crosslinked with a phosphate linkage.

SODIUM TRI META PHOSPHATE
Product by China
APPLICATION :  STMP is used for producing Distarch phosphate.  It is a starch which is crosslinked with a phosphate linkage.

PROPYLENE OXIDE
Product by : Specialty Gas in China
APPLICATION :  Prolylene oxide is a volatile liquid with a low boiling point.  It forms explosive mixture with oxygen and air.  The cyclic compound with formula C3H6O which is used to treat starch to give Hydroxypropyl Starch Ethers.

SILICA (Silicon Dioxide)
Product by Indonesia
APPLICATION :  SiO2 is a amorphous silica giving the free flowing property.  Moisted starch can be treated by SiO2 to improve the flowability.

MAGNESIUM OXIDE
Product by Isael
APPLICATION :  MgO is a special chemical for making absorbable dusting powder for latex gloved application.

ADIPIC ACID
Product by Europe
APPLICATION :  Adipic Acid used as a buffering agent and pH adjustment.

MALEIC ANHYDRIDE
Product by Japan
APPLICATION : MA  used to produce special kind of starch copolymer by esterification of starch with the copolymer of MA and vinyl acetate.
