- 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.
