Starke Adhesive - Thin Boiling Starch
Thin Boiling Starch has low and uniform viscosity, which does not change much with temperature unlike native starches, which shows a wide change in viscosity. Qualities of the native starch also show a marked variation, i.e. considerable degradation occurs on boiling. Thin Boiling Starch’s non-congealing characteristic, shorter boiling time, transparency of paste and lower viscosity ensure easy working, compared to thick boiling starches. Unlike gum and glues which require soaking, Thin Boiling Starch is readily dispersed in water and can be boiled into a smooth paste without any pretreatment.
Thin boiling starches are manufactured by acid addition to raw starch and chemically treated starch. Prepared from natural ingredients, our offered products are demanded across the nationwide market. Thin Boiling Starch is a partially hydrolyzed starch product. Thin Boiling Starch’s application in yarn weaving is particularly advantageous as it does not develop abrasive points on over-drying and its flexible film gives the yarn the desired elasticity.
- Sizing efficiency is increased
- With low viscosity, it gives better film properties
- The yarn gets sufficient tensile strength
- Homogeneous along with other chemicals makes the fiber “abrasion and droppings free”
