The invention relates to starch phosphates exhibiting improved properties with regard to application techniques, to a method for the production thereof, and to their use. Based on the disadvantages of the known prior art, the aim of the invention is to produce starch phosphates which have a high degree of substitution, which are resistant to hydrolysis, and which can be produced using phosphorylating agents comprising only a low level of toxicity. To this end, starch phosphates are provided in which the anhydroglucose units are substituted by phosphate ester groups and carbamide groups, and the average degree of substitution DS of the carbamide groups and of the phosphate ester groups is in a range, each time, that is greater than 0.01. The starting materials are used in a mol ratio of anhydroglucose units of the starch:phosphorus of the phosphorylating agent:urea of 1:0.1 to 1.5:0.3 to 4, and the reaction is carried out in a vacuum under a pressure of≦100 torr and at reaction temperatures ranging from 90° C. to 140° C. Starch phosphates exhibiting different properties are obtained by reacting at different reaction temperatures, are distinguished by a good biodegradability, and are resistant to hydrolysis under normal conditions.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a stable, chlorine free modified starch which is useful in paper coating and sizing. In the process, starch is degraded by catalyzed hydrogen peroxide oxydation, and stabilized by acetyl esterification, combined with crosslinking of the starch.
摘要:
Novel modified starch products and methods of preparation thereof are disclosed, wherein the starch products exhibit excellent water hydration and emulsion stabilization properties, while substantially maintaining individual granular structure. The modified starches are expanded or preswelled and cross-linked, preferably using a phosphate cross-linker, followed by substitution with hydrophobic moieties such as those derived from suitable acids or acid anhydrides.

摘要:
A paste of starch derivative is crosslinked by irradiation with &ggr;-rays or electron beams in a dose of 0.1-200 kGy. Two different levels of crosslinking are performed; the first is mild crosslinking by irradiation at a low dose of 0.1-1.0 kGy to such an extent that the viscosity of the overall system increases upon immersion in water, and the second is intensive crosslinking by irradiation at a higher dose than 1.0 kGy to produce a gel that is completely insoluble in water.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to cold water swellable starches exhibiting delayed viscosity development, preparation and use thereof. The cold water swellable starches are prepared using methods known in the art and then are compacted. These starches provide all the advantages of CWS starch, including texture, heavy body, glossy sheen, and viscosity. However, the rate of hydration may be controlled to delay viscosity development. Such starches may be used for a variety of industrial applications including food products, personal care products, cleansers, liquid detergents and fabric softeners, oil-well drilling, and paints and allow for easier processing of such products.
摘要:
The invention relates to an adhesive composition comprising a derivative of a starch, which comprises at least 95 wt. % of amylopectin, based on dry substance of the starch, wherein the derivative is obtainable by cross-linking, etherification, esterification or a combination thereof, of the starch. The invention further relates to a process for preparing the adhesive composition and to the use thereof for adhering wallpaper or billposter to a substrate.
摘要:
Polysaccharide aldehydes are prepared using selective oxidation involving the use of nitroxyl radical mediated aqueous oxidation with a limited amount of oxidant and defined reaction conditions. These polysaccharide aldehyde derivatives having maximum effective aldehyde and minimal carboxylic acid levels making them especially useful as wet, temporary wet and dry strength additives for paper.
摘要:
The present invention relates to heat stable high viscosity starches. The starches of the present invention are obtained by reacting high viscosity starch with activated chlorine under alkaline conditions. The starches of the present invention are used to replace viscosity stable starches obtained by conventional chemical cross-bonding.
