Water-Soluble Modified Starch Powder Pharmaceutical Intermediates with Excellent Solubility

Water-Soluble Modified Starch Powder is a specially processed excipient composed of soluble starch, selected inorganic salts, and auxiliary ingredients. It is manufactured through a scientific multi-step conversion and purification process, followed by high-temperature refining. This product exhibits outstanding water solubility, excellent flowability, high stability, resistance to moisture absorption, and non-caking properties.

Its multifunctional profile allows it to improve product texture, enhance quality, and reduce overall production costs. It is suitable for use as a thickening agent, stabilizer, or carrier in various formulations. The powder does not ferment, is non-hygroscopic, has no unpleasant odor, is low in sweetness, easily digestible, and dissolves rapidly, making it especially ideal for the preparation of instant granules or oral powders in the pharmaceutical and veterinary fields.

This excipient offers multiple advantages:
It is free of crystal water and free ions, ensuring long-term stability and a shelf life of over five years under proper storage conditions (sealed, cool, and dry). It performs better than anhydrous glucose and is available in various colors such as white, yellow, and green. It effectively resolves common clumping issues in veterinary formulations, especially in colored powder preparations, enhancing the visual appeal of final products.

The starch powder is highly soluble in both cold and hot water, with a solubility rate of over 98%. The resulting solution is clear and uniform, with no sedimentation or layering. Compared to other carriers like starch, glucose, lactose, or sodium sulfate, this powder has a larger volume per unit weight, resulting in fuller packaging and a better product appearance.

Its excellent anti-caking ability eliminates the need for additional drying or anti-caking agents, helping to lower production costs and extend shelf life. With superior fluidity and a mild, sweet taste, it can also be used as a coating agent for tablets, improving palatability and ease of ingestion.

Moreover, the powder does not participate in chemical reactions with common raw materials during pharmaceutical production. Its critical relative humidity (CRH) is higher than that of anhydrous glucose and similar to lactose, reducing risks of moisture absorption, discoloration, or caking during storage. The advanced secondary purification and high-temperature processing further enhance its solubility and flowability compared to competing products.
