Features and Benefits
  • In comparison to regular dent corn starch which contains approximately 28% amylose, HYLON® V starch is a corn hybrid containing approximately 55% amylose. Amylose, a linear polymer, can closely align or associate through hydrogen bonding. This characteristic of amylose is primarily responsible for the gelling and film-forming ability of starches.
  • Since HYLON® V starch contains approximately twice as much amylose as regular corn starch it can form more rigid gels and contribute to the formation of stronger, tougher films.
  • HYLON® V starch requires higher cooking temperatures than conventional corn starch to adequately gelatinize.

Microbiological Limits

Initial testing is done on a single composite sample against a limit of m. If result is above m, the three class sampling and acceptance below is used.

  n c m M
Total Plate Count/g 5 3 10,000 100,00
Yeast/g 5 3 200 1,000
Mold/g 5 3 200 1,000
Enterobacteriaceae 5 3 100 1,000

Where n = # of samples tested; c = maximum allowable number of results between m and M; m = upper target limit; M = maximum acceptable value.
