Acetylated Distarch Adipate (Modified Starch E1422)
CAS Number: 9050-36-6
Acetylated distarch adipate (E1422) is a dual-modified starch produced by cross-linking with adipic/acetic anhydride, providing exceptional freeze-thaw stability, high shear resistance, and stability at low pH and elevated temperatures. It outperforms native starch in retort processing, frozen foods, and acidic sauces, maintaining smooth texture and preventing retrogradation over extended storage.
