Technical Document
Maltodextrin Maltodextrin is a versatile carbohydrate derived from starch hydrolysis that functions as a bulking agent, stabilizer, and carrier providing rapid solubility, film-forming properties, and controlled viscosity for texture modification and flavor encapsulation. In the food industry, it delivers neutral flavor bulking for sugar reduction, excellent spray-drying aid for powders, and bland matrix for high-intensity sweeteners ideal for seasonings, beverages, and low-fat formulations.
