Corn Starch Food Grade
Corn Starch Food Grade is a fine, white, powdery carbohydrate extracted from the endosperm of corn kernels (Zea mays). It is a natural, tasteless, and odorless polysaccharide composed primarily of amylose and amylopectin. Corn starch is widely used as a thickening, stabilizing, and binding agent in food products due to its excellent gelatinization properties. It serves as a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour in many culinary and industrial applications. Corn starch is valued for its versatility, digestibility, and neutral flavor profile, making it a staple ingredient in both home cooking and commercial food production.
Corn Starch Industrial Grade
Corn Starch Industrial Grade is a finely milled, white powder derived from the endosperm of maize (Zea mays). Unlike food-grade starch, industrial grade is tailored for non-food applications where its thickening, adhesive, and film-forming properties are exploited. It consists primarily of amylose and amylopectin polysaccharides and is valued for its biodegradability, renewability, and cost-effectiveness. Industrial corn starch is used extensively as a raw material or functional additive across a wide variety of manufacturing processes, including paper, textiles, adhesives, and packaging industries.
