Thickener application in making food

Thickener and says gelling agent, when used in food and says the paste or food glue. It can improve the content of viscosity, make things to maintain the uniform stability of the suspension state or opacifying state, or form a gel. Widely used in food, coating, adhesive, cosmetics, detergent, printing, dyeing, rubber, medicine, etc. Again in the pigment printing, the thickening agent, water, adhesives and coating of paint color printing paste, printing paste and printing machinery forces, occurs shear force, make printing paste viscosity moment to greatly reduce; When the shear force disappear, and return to the original high viscosity, make the fabric printing outline is clear. With the change of the shear force and the viscosity changes happened, basically is to rely on thickener to realize. To manufacture of emulsioni paint, thickener to emulsioni paint of food additives, stability and can play the rheology of various coordination function. Latex polymerization process again as protective colloid, and improve the stability of the emulsion; Then pigments, fillers dispersed phase, improving dispersion viscosity and scattered the material benefit; Then the transportation of stability and increase coating freezing-thawing resisting sexual, prevent pigments, fillers sink agglomerate; Again in regulating emulsioni paint construction viscosity, and with the good thixotropy. In the food additives to per a few food thickener, has the gel, film, hold water, suspension, emulsion, foam stability and lubrication effect. Convection state food or frozen plastic food color, fragrance, taste, structure and relative stability of food plays a very important role.
Thickener mostly belongs to hydrophilic polymer compound, according to sources of plant, animal figurines, divided into mineral kind, GeChengLei or half GeChengLei. Simple points can be divided into natural and synthetic two kinds big. Natural products containing Taurine polysaccharides viscous material from most of the plants and algae from the sea, such as starch, pectin, AGAR, gelatin, algae fat, harpoons glue, dextrin, yellow over sixty years of age glue, polysaccharide grain derivatives; And finished products have methyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose and starch derivative cellulose derivatives, product, delibakery product, poly (acrylic acid sodium, get together the oxidation of vinyl, polyethylene pyrrole, poly (vinyl alcohol), low molecular polyethylene wax, PAM, etc.
Beverage production of commonly used thickener and be emulsified stabilizer with of the thickener mainly sodium carboxy methyl cellulose, propy leneglucolalginate ester, kara glue, xanthan gum, pectin, guar gum, the order of bean glue.
