HYLON® V - 04400204

HYLON® V - 04400204 is an unmodified corn starch derived from high amylose corn, and it contains approximately 55% amylose. This starch is employed in various food applications where its outstanding gelling, film-forming, and opacifying properties are essential. It primarily functions as a gelling agent, aiding in the texture and consistency of food products. Additionally, HYLON® V carries labeling claims of being Halal, Non-GMO, and Kosher, making it suitable for various dietary and cultural requirements.

Benefits and Features

In comparison to regular dent corn starch which contains approximately 28% amylose, HYLON® V starch is a corn hybrid containing approximately 55% amylose. Amylose, a linear polymer, can closely align or associate through hydrogen bonding. This characteristic of amylose is primarily responsible for the gelling and film-forming ability of starches.; Since HYLON® V starch contains approximately twice as much amylose as regular corn starch it can form more rigid gels and contribute to the formation of stronger, tougher films.; HYLON® V starch requires higher cooking temperatures than conventional corn starch to adequately gelatinize.

Packaging Information

HYLON® V starch is packaged in multi ply kraft paper bags with a net weight of 50 lbs.
