Starches
Starches are polysaccharide granules extracted from corn. Chemical treatments, hydroxypropyl substitution and phosphate crosslinking help avoid syneresis while increasing stability and resistance of starches in comparison to pH, high shear and temperature.
In formulation, starch granules swell to bring texturize and give your product a creaminess and pick up.
