| Application | Function | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Batter mix | Texturizer | Improve crispiness. |
| Adhesion | Increase puffing ability. | |
| Improver | Provide excellent adhesion. |
| Application | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Wet-End | Use in the paper industry, particularly for internal sizing (wet end additive). This type can increase dry strength, filler and fine retention, and drainage rate of the pulp. |
| Surface Sizing & Coating | Use in paper industry, particularly for surface sizing/ coating applied concentration range at the Size Press/ Coater machine. Preparation are easy soluble in hot water for completely disperse and stable viscosity for increasing paper strength. The properties result in improved machine run and higher quality paper. |
| Carbonless | Use in carbonless paper industry, particularly for surface sizing and bonding capsule. This product improves viscosity stability, water retention, surface smoothness and printability. |
The company provides modified tapioca starches for gypsum that offer suitable in penetration and high bonding strength between gypsum studs and wall covering paper, resulted in excellent finished surface and back up surface.
| Application | Function | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Gypsum board | Binder | - The low viscosity at higher temperature ensures a quick and almost complete migration of starch through the plaster. - Giving an excellent adherence of the paper to the gypsum. - The ability of forming a gel at higher concentrations and 55o C ensures an excellent moisture-resistance of the finished board when exposed to high relative humidifies. |
The company provides modified tapioca starches for corrugating product with an excellent adhesive stability that can be applied effectively to high speed modern corrugators, as a result there is less glue splashing due to its short texture and therefore there is an increase in productivity.
| Application | Function | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Corrugating Product | Adhesive | - Stable viscosity gives more consistent operation on the machine and a better board quality. - Higher machine running speeds due to above reasons and the ability to run at lower glue gel point. - Provide better board stiffness. |
Modified Starch is used as a significant component to develop textile capability (strength, elasticity and surface strength)reduce friction in the weaving process and improve the feel and appearance of fabric. In addition modified starch derivatives are excellent for yarn coating as ironing starch using in laundry industry. Various types with specific functional properties of our quality products produced for these purposes.
The selection of our products for specific qualification depends on the requirements with respect to the final properties of textile products.
