The South America Starch Derivatives market size is anticipated to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the high biocompatible properties of starch derivatives as compared to synthetic polymers.
Starch derivatives are also known as modified starch. These are prepared by enzymatically, physically, or chemically treating native starch to change its properties. Starch derivatives are used in a number of industries for numerous functions. They are used as thickening and stabilizing agent in the food and beverage industry, tablet binder in the pharmaceutical industry, emulsifier in cosmetics, and fiber additive in the animal feed.
Some of the other functions of starch derivatives are flocculation, adhesiveness, film-forming, pH stability improvement, shear stability, acid stability, and process tolerance enhancement. Starches can be modified to increase their stability against excessive heat, cooling, acid, time, shear or freezing to change their texture and to increase or decrease their viscosity, depending on the application.
