| Westar+
Cationic Flake Corn Starch was developed specifically for floccing
colloidal silica onto refractory fibers for bonding of vacuum formed
composites and shapes. This starch is pre-cooked, dissolves readily in
cold water, and offers advantages over potato starches. |

Westar+ offers these advantages
|
|
|
| More
Uniform Coating and Floccing - |
Corn flakes
disperse much faster than potato flakes, creating a more uniform product. |
| 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. |
| Reduces
Costs - |
Our flake corn
starch requires 30% less colloidal silica for optimum floccing so less
binder is required, reducing formula cost. |
