Maltodextrin Types (DE Value) for Cosmetic Coating and Spray Drying
Question
I am interested in using Maltodextrin in cosmetic formulations, specifically as a coating agent and for spray drying applications.
- Do you have Maltodextrin types with a DE value around 40-43?
- Are the available Maltodextrin types (DE2, DE10-12, DE19) suitable for use as a cosmetic coating agent?
- Are the available Maltodextrin types suitable for spray drying?
Answer
Maltodextrin Types and Cosmetic Use
Regarding your question about maltodextrin types, particularly those with DE values around 40-43, the maltodextrin products available have different DE values:
- Maltodextrin (DE2, 60 Mesh)
- Maltodextrin (DE10-12, 60 Mesh)
- Maltodextrin (DE19, Granulated 35 Mesh)
These available types have lower DE values than the 40-43 range you mentioned.
Regarding the use of maltodextrin as a coating agent in cosmetic products, while maltodextrin can have various applications, the descriptions for the available types primarily indicate typical uses in food for purposes like providing energy or modifying texture. They are not specifically described for cosmetic coating applications or suitability for spray drying, which aligns with the previous information you received that a type specifically designed for spray drying is not available.
