Global Modified Waxy Starch Market to be Propelled by Growing
Number of Applications in Food & Beverages during 2019-2027
A Recent Research Report by Research Nester titled “Global Modified
Waxy Starch Market: Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook
2027” delivers detailed overview of the global modified waxy starch market
in terms of market segmentation by raw material type, by application, by end
user and by region.
Based on raw material type, the global waxy starch market is segmented into
corn starch, potato starch and others; by application into thickeners,
emulsifiers, bakery and others; by end user into food, chemicals &
pharmaceuticals, paper and others.
The global modified waxy starch market is anticipated to record a CAGR of
around 5% over the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027.
Modified Waxy Starch is the physical and chemical modification of native
starches. The functional properties are improved to get advantageous
properties over those of the native starches. Modified waxy starch is formed
by morphological or physicochemical changes in the structure of native
starch via its treatment with heat, acids, alkalis, or enzymes. These have
improved water-holding capacity, heat resistance, binding characteristics
and thickening property. Chemical modification changes some functional
properties of waxy starches which offers a wide range of applications.
Acetylated starches are majorly used in food industries for several years
because of important factors such as high solubility, low temperature of
gelatinization and good cooking and storage ability.
