Textiles (Sizing and Dyeing)

  • Dextrins form a film and act as sheath for fibre. Thus protecting it from abrasion. White dextrin is used in textile finishing in order imparting stiffness to certain types of interlining fabrics. The soft pulp paste of Dextrin acts as the best thickening agent for every type of textile, paper printing, and certain plastic printing using all types of colors and dyestuffs. The gritless and non abrasive print paste ensures long life of printing copper rolls which cannot be achieved by using gum and other adhesives.

Food Industries and Sweets Manufacturers

  • White dextrin is used in biscuit industry to enhance the shelf life and crispiness.
  • The film forming properties of spactrin –FG make it effective in the pan coating of confections as a replacement for gum Arabic.
  • This can be used as a non-tacky glaze for cakes, donuts, fruit, nuts and candies.

Glue and Adhesive Industries

  • Dextrin’s have essential characteristics in coating, binding and adhesive applications for better tack. Their low viscosities allow their use at high concentrations which result the films dry faster and provide much faster tack. Because of this property Dextrin are used in seam gums for envelopes, bottle labeling adhesives, remoistening gummed tape, postage stamp, card board boxes etc.

Explosive Industry

  • SPACTRIN –FW is used in fireworks industries, foundry, dyestuff and printing, glass fibre industry, insecticides, paint and distemper etc.

 


SPAC's White Dextrin fireworks grade (F.W.) provides the fireworks industry with a consistent quality product with unique features. SPAC is manufacturing various grades of white dextrin tailor made and to suit the customer’s requirement. These manufacturing under controlled conditions to achieve the desired level of cold water solubility and color.
GRADES
There are different grades of white dextrin are available that differ in viscosity and solubility.
