Technical aspects
Modified Starch E1442 (Hydroxypropyl Distarch Phosphate) is in the form of a powder with the white color and typical smell of starch. It is produced by treating natural starch with propylene oxide and phosphoric acid or phosphorus oxychloride. Modified Starch E1442 dissolves in hot water and swells in cold or warm water. It is also resistant to high temperatures and has very good freezing and thawing properties.
Modified Starch E1442 is used as a stabilizer, thickener, binder and emulsifier. It is gluten-free and not genetically modified.

Application
Modified Starch E1442 is mainly used as a stabilizing and thickening agent. In the production of sauces and fruitcake fillings, it serves as a thickening agent that forms gels without heating. In the dairy industry, it is used in the production of cottage cheese, cream, yogurt and ice cream, giving products a sticky consistency. In addition, E1442 is found in many canned fish, vegetables and fruit. It is also used in frozen products such as ice cream and ready-to-eat meals because of its excellent freeze-drying properties, which maintain flavor, uniform texture and color after thawing and refreezing.
Modified Starch E1442 is also used in the manufacture of cosmetics. It gives products a thicker and smoother texture, making them easier to apply. In addition, its ability to bind water can help moisturize skin and hair. It is mild in application and can be used in a variety of cosmetics, such as creams, lotions, makeup products or hair care products.
