In the detergent industry, modified starch can be used for various purposes. It is especially common in powder and liquid detergent production.
Modified starch can play many different roles in detergent production. These include purposes such as increasing the viscosity of the detergent, making the product thicker, making it easier to keep the detergent in powder form, increasing the foam of the detergent and increasing the effectiveness of water softeners.
In powder detergent production, modified starch can be used as the structurant of the detergent. This provides structural integrity to the product and increases the shelf life of the detergent. In addition, modified starch can be used to increase the water resistance of the detergent.
In the production of liquid detergents, modified starch can be used to ensure that the product has a denser consistency and at the same time to provide a better mixing of the product. In addition, modified starch can be used to reduce the turbidity of liquid detergents.
Because of its use in the detergent industry, modified starch can help the product to be of higher quality and increase its performance.
