摘要:
Disclosed are starch compositions comprising starch and at least 0.1% by weight based on said starch of a sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium salt of a monoalkyl fumarate or maleate having from 14 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, which are useful as film-forming agents, as starch adhesive compositions and as starch-based thickening agents. Preferred embodiments include the use of sodium monostearyl fumarate and sodium monostearyl maleate.
摘要:
A process for modifying cellulose acetate by treating an object made of a mixed ester of cellulose and (1) acetic acid and (2) a polybasic carboxylic acid, i.e., a dibasic carboxylic acid and/or tribasic carboxylic acid, with a divalent or higher metal salt to impart solvent resistance to the object.
摘要:
A novel converting starch product comprising a starch base which is admixed with a modifying agent, aqueous dispersions of which product display a high viscosity when first gelatinized but upon being cooked at retort temperatures are converted resulting in a dispersion exhibiting a substantially reduced viscosity. Such starch products find a particular use in the commercial preparation of foods.
