E1442 Identification and Analytical Methods
Tianjiang's E1442 quality-control program includes identification and analytical procedures for confirming starch identity, modification characteristics and key physicochemical parameters.
Non-pregelatinized E1442 retaining its granular structure can be examined microscopically to evaluate characteristic starch granule shape, size and structure.
A sample suspension is treated with iodine solution to observe the characteristic starch color response and support product identification.
Following acid hydrolysis, the prepared sample is evaluated through the prescribed copper-reduction reaction to support starch identification.
Hydroxypropyl content is determined using the applicable spectrophotometric analytical procedure to verify the degree of hydroxypropyl modification.
Residual chloropropanol is determined using the applicable chromatographic analytical procedure as part of Tianjiang's quality-control testing.
These values represent Tianjiang's current quality-control test limits for E1442 Hydroxypropyl Distarch Phosphate. Actual batch results are reported in the corresponding COA. Specifications may be adjusted according to product grade, raw-material source and customer application requirements.
