Market Overview:

Modified starch, are prepared by enzymatically, physically, or chemically treating native starch to change its properties. Modified starches are used in almost all starch applications, for example in food products as a thickening agent, stabilizer or emulsifier; in pharmaceuticals as a disintegrant; as binder in coated paper. They also have many other use or applications.

Starches are modified to improve their performance in various applications. Starches can be changed to increase their stability against extreme heat, acid, cooling, or freezing; to change their texture; to increase or decrease their viscosity; or to increase their visco-stability.

Drivers and Restraints:

The significant drivers for Modified Starch is the growing awareness about functional food and the growing demand for natural ingredients in food and feed. Also surge the rising demand for health food and natural sweeteners in beverages, specifically in energy drinks and non-carbonated soft drinks because of their low calorie value developing economies will boost this industry. However strict government policies in the area of Modified Starch limits this industry.
