Product Description:
Maltodextrin is made from quality corn starch by means of enzymatically low degree hydrolyze, refined, and advanced processing technology. Between starch and starch sugar, maltodextrin is a low hydrolysis products. It has moderate viscosity and carrier effect. It is almost no sweetness, with higher heat resistance, not easy browning, with the advantages of good emulsification and thickening effect, ow hygroscopic, it is not easy to agglomerate and so on.

Applications:
Applications in candy industry:
Maltodextrin can increase the viscosity of candies, prevent crystallisation and melting, reduce sweetness, change taste and prolong the shelf life of candies.
Maltodextrin has low sweetness and good thickening effect. Using maltodextrin in beverage production can reduce sweetness so as to bring out the product’s natural flavour, increase the density and improve the texture of the product.
Using maltodextrin in instant food production can improve the flavour of the product and reduce the production cost.
Maltodextrin has high fluidity and moderate viscosity. It is often used as adhesives in paper making.
Maltodextrin has relatively low molecular weight and high stability of emulsification. It can be used in powder cosmetics to increase the luster and flexibility of skin.
