WHITE DEXTRIN

Dextrin are prepared by heat treatment in presence of chemicals to suitably modify characteristics and properties of starch. They find application in dyes, adhesives, foundries, fire-crackers, oil drilling and many other industries.

Unlike starch dextrin are soluble in water. The severity of the treatment determines the degree of solubility, which is the basis of classifying or grading dextrin. Finished dextrin are very fine powder varying in color from pure white to yellow to dark brown.

Specification:

Applications:
It is widely used in the manufacture of:

• Spiral convolute tubes.
• Carbon-paper manufacturing, abrasive and in dry distemper.
• Machine labeling of tins /cartoon packages envelop corrugated boxes.
• Also used by crackers manufacture due to adhesives properties & also explosive

Character
