Features and Benefits
  • PURITY® 5 modified starch has the ability to absorb moisture from the atmosphere or from other minerals. As a result, the shelf life of moisture sensitive ingredients is improved.
  • It will also inhibit caking of hygroscopic materials. When a product containing PURITY® 5 modified starch is added to water and cooked, it will impart a smooth, short texture when hot and set to a firm gel upon cooling.
