Development history of modified starch

Starch can be modified by physical and chemical modification and biodegradation to produce modified starch with different properties and suitable for different application fields. Compared with oil and coal, the cleanliness and sustainable development of starch have attracted more and more attention.

The production and application of modified starch has a history of more than 150 years, but the development is the fastest in recent 20 years. At present, the developed countries no longer use raw starch directly, but use modified starch in papermaking, food, textile, medicine and health, plastics, aquatic feed, oil and gas exploitation, building materials and water treatment.

China began to speed up the production of modified starch since the mid-1980s. Now the modified starch in China has developed from scratch, from small to large, from small to many, and has entered a period of rapid development. Due to the excellent properties of modified starch, the amount of modified starch is increasing in chemical production. It has become an important chemical raw material and has a broad market prospect.

The chemical structure of some glucose units was changed by deep processing of common starch by physical or chemical methods, and different types of modified starch were obtained. There are many kinds of modified starch. Different kinds of modified starch can be obtained by different ways. According to their different properties, they can be used in different production. According to the different treatment methods, it can be divided into three types: physical, chemical and biological modified starch.
