Claims22
A process for preparing a starch dextrin which comprises dextrinizing a root or tuber starch from starch granules isolated from a natural source having an amylopectin content of at least 95 wt. %, based on dry substance of the starch, or a derivative of said starch.
A process for preparing a starch pyrodextrin which comprises dextrinizing a root or tuber starch having an amylopectin content of at least 95 wt. %, based on dry substance of the starch, or a derivative of said starch, wherein the dextrinizing step comprises heating said starch to produce a pyrodextrin.
A process for preparing a starch dextrin which comprises dextrinizing a starch which comprises at least 95 wt. %, based on dry substance of the starch, of amylopectin, or a derivative of said starch, wherein the dextrinizing step is performed in the presence of a co-reagent.
