Application
Dextrin from corn is a versatile carbohydrate derived from the partial hydrolysis of corn starch through a bacterial process. Its primary purpose is to serve as a multifunctional ingredient in various industries, leveraging its unique properties. In adhesives, dextrin acts as a binder and moisture absorber, making it essential for paper and glue products. Its ability to control viscosity and reduce density makes it a valuable component in cosmetics, while also being used as a thickening agent and stabilizer. Furthermore, dextrin finds applications in the pharmaceutical industry as a tablet diluent, binder, and coating agent. It can also be utilized in the construction industry, where even minimal amounts enhance the fluidity and compressive strength of cement formulations. As a dietary fiber, its indigestible form provides nutritional benefits, catering to specific dietary needs due to its low electrolyte and sugar content. Overall, dextrin's multifunctionality, derived from corn, makes it an indispensable ingredient across diverse sectors.
