Product Introduction
WEHENGFOOD is a professional Acetylated Distarch Adipate (E1422) manufacturer, supplier and exporter in China, supplying food-grade modified starch for sauces, dairy products, fruit preparations and other processed foods.
Acetylated Distarch Adipate, also known as E1422 modified starch, combines acetylation and cross-linking to provide excellent processing stability. It features stable hot and cold viscosity, strong resistance to acid, alkali, salt and shear, good water-holding capacity, smooth and transparent paste properties, and excellent freeze-thaw stability. It can also withstand demanding processing conditions involving high temperature, high pressure and high shear. For different formulations and production processes, we offer Hot Swelling and Cold Swelling E1422, with both Waxy Corn and Regular Corn options available. Hot swelling grades are suitable for cooked applications where viscosity develops during heating, while cold swelling grades are designed for products that require rapid viscosity development with little or no cooking.
For customers who are currently using modified starch from Ingredion, we can recommend a suitable E1422 grade according to the required viscosity, processing temperature, pH, shear conditions and final product texture. Roquette users looking for waxy corn or regular corn-based modified starch can also contact us with their current product specifications or application requirements for grade selection and sample evaluation.

Key Functions & Benefits
- Thickening and viscosity control – builds consistent body in sauces, dairy products and fillings.
- High process stability – strong tolerance to acid, alkali, salt and mechanical shear.
- Heat and pressure tolerance – suitable for demanding thermal processing and high-shear production.
- Freeze/thaw stability – helps maintain texture and reduce quality loss during frozen and chilled storage.
- Water holding – supports moisture retention and reduces syneresis in suitable formulations.
- Smooth, transparent paste – contributes to clean appearance, gloss and smooth mouthfeel.
- Short paste texture and good machinability – supports easier pumping, mixing, filling and industrial processing.
- Film-forming performance – useful where surface integrity and structure are required.

FAQ
Q1: What are the main characteristics of Acetylated Distarch Adipate E1422?
Acetylated Distarch Adipate E1422 has a high gelatinization temperature and provides stable viscosity under both cold and hot conditions. Its highly stable starch granule structure offers good resistance to acid, alkali, salt and shear, making it suitable for demanding food-processing conditions.
Q2: Is E1422 suitable for high-temperature and high-shear food processing?
Yes. E1422 has excellent processing stability and can withstand high temperature, high pressure and high shear. This makes it suitable as a food thickener for industrial production processes where viscosity stability is important.
Q3: What texture and stability does E1422 provide?
E1422 produces a fine and transparent starch paste with good water-holding capacity. It also provides good freezing stability and freeze-thaw stability. In addition, it has high film strength, low swelling and low hot-water solubility.
Q4: What are the main applications of Acetylated Distarch Adipate E1422?
E1422 can be widely used as a thickener in food products. Typical applications include oyster sauce, seafood sauce, Chu Hou sauce, gravy and other seasoning sauces, stirred yogurt, set yogurt, lactic acid beverages, flavored milk beverages and spreadable fruit preparations.
Q5: What is the delivery time for Acetylated Distarch Adipate E1422?
Our typical delivery time is 5–15 days after order confirmation. The exact lead time may vary depending on the order quantity, packaging requirements and production schedule.
Q6: What are your payment terms for E1422?
Our standard payment terms are 50% T/T in advance, with the remaining 50% balance paid against the copy of the Bill of Lading (B/L).
