What is it?

Pregelatinized starch is also named Alpha starch. It is Physically modified starch. It has superior adhesion and expansion properties. It is specially developed to act as a natural binder for manufacturing feed pellets, briquettes, mosquito coil and welding electrodes. It is instantly solubilized in cold water, forming a high tack adhesive that holds kinds of stuff together.

Advantages:

– Pregelatinized starch is widely used in pharmaceuticals because it is bland, odorless, and capable of digestion.

– Pregelatinized Starch swell in cold water and therefore reduce time/cost compared with traditional starch paste preparation.

– Pregelatinized starch is widely used as a pharmaceutical aid, especially as a filler-binder.

– Pregelatinized starch greatly endues the compressibility as well as improves the fluidity of the tablets.

– Pregelatinized Starch, having excellent flow properties and bulk density, allow homogenous filling of capsules.

– It is used as a binder in mosquito coil, incense stick, gypsum board, welding electrode, and briquette industries to replace expensive gum.

– Because of high viscosity and appreciable binding capacity, Alpha starch finds much favor in the adhesive industry and animal feed industries. It helps to bind every nutrient ingredient together and keep the fish feed stable in the water for 2 – 6 hours.

– Pregelatinized food starch is used as a thickening, texturing, and stabilizing agent in cream fillings, canned, sauces, soup mixes, gravies, tomato ketchup, pasty creams, dairy desserts, and other food product industries.
