Chemical properties:

It appears as white, yellow or brown flowing powder. Dextrin of relatively small molecular weight is completely soluble in water to form viscous slurry; dextrin with relatively large molecular mass is not completely soluble in water.

Application:

It can be used as emulsifying stabilizers and thickeners, adhesives and surface decorators.

It can be applied to the pharmaceutical industry, protective adhesives and suspending agents, adhesives. For example, it can be applied to the sizing treatment of paper, textile sizing and ink preparation; it can also be used as a drug excipient and a substitute of the Arabic gum.

Description:

Derived from dextrose (glucose), dextrin is a low-molecular-weight carbohydrate produced from the hydrolysis of starches. It can be made from any starch and is generally classified as white dextrins, yellow (or canary) dextrins, and British gums. Indigestible dextrin is a water-soluble dietary fiber extracted and prepared from the indigestible components in the resulting mush. Due to its water-soluble nature and adhesive qualities, dextrin is used in many glue products. Most dextrins are used as adhesives for paper products. Only white dextrins and only small amounts of them are used in prepared foods. White dextrins are prepared by heating dried, acidified starch. Dextrin can be used as green and biodegradable modifiers of the physicochemical properties of cement composites. Even with a minimum content of dextrin, it increases the fluidization of cement mixes, enables the reduction of mixing water, and contributes to the compressive strength of cement mortars.

Uses:

Pharmaceutic aid (suspending agent); pharmaceutic aid (viscosity-increasing agent); pharmaceutic aid (tablet binder); pharmaceutic aid (tablet and capsule diluent).
