CAS Number: 9050-36-6
INCI: Maltodextrin
Composition: Maltodextrin Powder is composed of short chains of glucose molecules derived from the hydrolysis of starch. It consists of dextrose polymers with varying degrees of polymerization, typically ranging from 3 to 20 glucose units.
Purity Grade: No purity grade applicable
Appearance: Maltodextrin Powder is a fine white or off-white powder with a neutral odor and taste.
Solubility: Maltodextrin Powder is highly soluble in water and forms clear, colorless solutions. It can also dissolve in other polar solvents such as ethanol.
Preservation: Maltodextrin Powder should be stored in a cool, dry place away from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight to prevent clumping and degradation. It should be tightly sealed in its original packaging or an airtight container to maintain quality.
Storage: Store in a closed container at a dry place at room temperature
Country of Origin: India
Raw Material Source: Maltodextrin is typically derived from various starch sources, including corn, wheat, potato, or rice starch. These starches undergo enzymatic hydrolysis to break down the long chains of glucose molecules into shorter maltodextrin chains.
Manufacture: Maltodextrin is produced through the partial hydrolysis of starch using enzymes (such as amylase) or acid hydrolysis. The hydrolysis process breaks down the starch molecules into shorter chains of glucose polymers, which are then purified, dried, and milled to produce the final maltodextrin powder.
Animal Testing: Not animal tested
GMO: GMO-free (does not contain plant-derived components)
Vegan: Does not contain animal-derived components
Proposition: MALTO DEXTRIN POWDER complies with relevant regulations and guidelines
Warning Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Use appropriate protective equipment when handling. Keep out of reach of children.
General Description:
Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide derived from starch, often corn, rice, or potato starch. It is composed of shorter chains of glucose molecules than starch itself, making it easily digestible and soluble in water. Maltodextrin typically appears as a white powder.
- Uses in the Cosmetic Industry:
In cosmetics, while less common than in food or pharmaceuticals, Maltodextrin can serve several potential purposes in formulations, including: - Absorbent: Maltodextrin can absorb moisture and oils, making it potentially useful in formulations like dry shampoos or powder-based cosmetics to improve texture and reduce greasiness.
- Texture Enhancer: It can act as a texture enhancer, providing a smooth and silky feel to cosmetic products such as creams, lotions, and powders.
- Binding Agent: Maltodextrin can help bind ingredients together in formulations, improving the stability and consistency of products.
Hazard:
While Maltodextrin is generally considered safe for use in cosmetics, there are some potential hazards and considerations:
- Potential Sensitivity: Some individuals may have sensitivities to corn-derived ingredients, which could include Maltodextrin. Patch testing is recommended, especially for individuals with known allergies or sensitivities.
