More Uniform Coating and Floccing
Corn flakes disperse much faster than potato flakes, creating a
more uniform product.
Flocs 25-30% More Silica
Readily flocs high silica formulations and is particularly effective
with smaller particle colloidal silica, like
Levasill®
FO1440.
Higher Green and Fired Strengths
Corn starch micelles
are half the size of potato starch micelles, resulting in higher strength,
hardness, and density.
No Pre-Dissolving
Readily dispersing flakes can be added dry directly to the slurry
tank, providing more accurate additions, reduced bacterial attack,
and less labor and equipment.
Made in the USA - No More Shortages
Corn starch does not suffer from periodic shortages as do the European
potato starches, so you can confidently plan for ample supplies.
