White Dextrin

Definition & Applications

White Dextrin is a partially hydrolyzed starch created through the heating or dry roasting of starch with an acid catalyst. This modification process changes the starch’s properties, resulting in a product with reduced cooked paste viscosity, enhanced cold water solubility, and a color shift from white to a pale, off-white shade. White Dextrin’s improved characteristics make it a valuable ingredient across various industrial sectors.
