Product Description:
E1422 is the European food additive code for acetylated distarch adipate (also known as modified starch E1422). It is derived from starch and undergoes modification through acetylation and adipic acid esterification processes. This modification enhances its functional properties, making it suitable for various applications in the food industry.

Acetylated distarch adipate is a white to off-white powder with a neutral taste and odor. It has good solubility in cold water and forms a clear, viscous solution when dissolved. The modification process alters the structure of the starch molecules, improving its stability, resistance to shear, and tolerance to high temperatures and acid conditions.

Product Applications:
Food Industry: Acetylated distarch adipate serves as a versatile ingredient with multiple functions in food applications. It is primarily used as a thickening and stabilizing agent. Some common applications include:

Sauces and Dressings: It provides viscosity and stability to sauces, gravies, salad dressings, and condiments, enhancing their texture and mouthfeel.

Dairy Products: It can be used in dairy-based products like custards, puddings, and yogurt to improve consistency, prevent syneresis (separation of liquid), and enhance freeze-thaw stability.
Bakery Products: Acetylated distarch adipate can be added to bakery fillings, creams, and frostings to improve texture, stability, and resistance to heat and acid conditions.

Processed Meats: It is used in processed meat products like sausages and deli meats as a binder and stabilizer, improving texture, water retention, and sliceability.

Ready-to-Eat Meals: It finds application in ready-to-eat meals and convenience foods, where it helps maintain texture and stability during processing and storage.

Non-Food Applications: Acetylated distarch adipate may also have non-food applications, including:

Pharmaceutical Industry: It can be used as a binder, disintegrant, and controlled-release agent in pharmaceutical tablets and capsules.

Personal Care Products: The modified starch may find application in personal care products like cosmetics, lotions, and creams, where it acts as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsion stabilizer.

Paper Industry: Acetylated distarch adipate can be used as a sizing agent in the paper industry to improve paper strength, surface smoothness, and ink holdout.
