Maltodextrin 11-16 is a food additive commonly used in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. It is a white or similar color powder with good solubility and stability. The DE value (Dextrose Equivalent) indicates the relative content of maltodextrin that can be hydrolyzed into glucose, and the DE value of 11-16 indicates that the glucose content is relatively high.
1. Food industry.
Thickeners: Used in sauces, condiments, salad dressings, jams and pastries to increase the consistency and texture of products.
Stabilizer: Prevents segregation and sedimentation of food ingredients, providing better texture and mouthfeel.
Humectant: Absorbs and retains moisture in foodstuffs, prolonging the freshness of the product.
Beverage industry.
Flavoring: Used as a flavoring agent in coffee, tea, milkshakes and beverages to provide sweetness and improve taste.
Stabilizer: Prevents solid particles from settling and liquids from layering, maintains the uniformity of the beverage.
2. Pharmaceutical industry.
Carrier agent: as the carrier of the drug, increase the stability and solubility of the drug.
Thickeners: Used to adjust the consistency and viscosity of drugs in the formulation process.
3. Cosmetic industry.
Emulsifier: Helps to mix the water and oil phases and stabilize the emulsion form.
Thickeners: Increase the consistency of cosmetic products, improve the texture and application experience.
Health Supplements.
Nutritional Supplements: Provides a quick supply of energy as an energy source and as a carbohydrate supplement.
