SMO Oxidized Starch is primarily used in paper and textile industry. Characteristics: At print-press applications, it provides perfect binding between the paint and surface. Improves performance of paper quality tests. Increases tensile strength of paper (bursting strength, tearing and torsion tests). For textile industry, Sunar Oxidized starch penetrates between fibers and increases elasticity. Due to the increased strength, the fibers have a lover tendency to break off. Thus the weaving speed can be increased. Unlike normal starches, oxidized starch forms a film on fiber surface. Due to this film layer, oxidized starch provides minimum dusting.
