Product Usage
Pre-gelatinized starch is extensively applied in the food industry (as a thickener for instant foods and a forming agent for baking and confectionery), in the medical field (as a tablet binder and aid for oral liquid suspensions), and in various industrial applications (such as water-retaining agents in building putty and mortar, feed pellet binders, and paper sizing agents). It is also used in cosmetics, oil drilling, and other sectors. Its key applications are based on its instant solubility in cold water, as well as its thickening and binding properties.
