Technical overview
What are Modified Starches & CMS?
Produced through physical and chemical modification of natural starches, these products provide enhanced functionality compared to native starch. Depending on the modification type, they can deliver improved water solubility, viscosity control, film formation, suspension stability and fluid-loss reduction.
Modified starches
- Rheology improvement
- Stabilization
- Binding performance
- Process performance
- Cost-effective bio-based solutions
CMS
- Anionic starch derivative
- Carboxymethylation of starch
- Excellent thickening
- Binding and water retention
- Textile, drilling, construction chemicals
