Functions:
1. Binder / Stabilizer - Retains the physical characteristics of food/cosmetics and ensure the mixture remains in an even state.
2. Emulsifier - Allows water and oils to remain mixed together to form an emulsion.
3. Gelling Agent / Thickener - Increases the viscosity by thickening the liquid to give it more texture
Acetylated distarch phosphate is prepared by treating starch with phosphorus oxychloride and acetic acid. It produces a white powder that has a potato starch odor that has good stability, high viscosity, and resistant to coagulation. It is predominately used as a thickener and binder in soups, vegetable and meat sauces, and salad dressings. It is also used as a thickener, stabilizer, and texturing agent in mayonnaise, dressings, ketchup, and fruit concentrates, jams, marmalade, jellies, and purees. [1]
It is approved to use as food additive (E1414) in EU and generally recognized as safe food substance in US.
