Starch derivatives are fine, white powders with a neutral flavor and odor made from maize, wheat, tapioca, potatoes, waxy maize, and high amylose maize. The demand for starch and its derivatives in various applications has surged due to growing awareness and use of these components in the food and non-food industries. Natural starch can be modified by enzymatic, physical, and chemical processes to create a starch derivative. This substance can be used as a thickening agent in food goods, a stabilizer, a disintegrant in pharmaceuticals, an emulsifier in different food products, and a binder in coated paper, among many other uses. The starch derivative sector is anticipated to increase in the upcoming years due to the use of these products in bonding and the antibacterial qualities of recycled fibers. The industry will continue to grow as the concerns of customers about nutrition and health increase as they adopt healthier eating habits. In addition, the growing demand for natural sweeteners in energy and non-carbonated soft drinks would boost global market share in the upcoming years. However, the expansion of starch derivatives is anticipated to be hindered during the forecast period by the high expenditures of research and development procedures as well as the expanding gum Arabic market.
