Starch glue has environmentally friendly properties and has good industry development prospects

Starch glue is the abbreviation of starch adhesive, which is a natural adhesive made from starch as the base material. At present, the domestic starch glue industry chain is relatively complete. The upstream is the supply of raw materials such as corn and wheat and the production of production equipment. The midstream is the production of various types of starch glue products. The downstream is sold to product manufacturers in various industries through various channels.

The main raw material of starch glue is starch, which is widely found in agricultural products such as potatoes and wheat. The cost of raw materials is relatively low. Starch can be processed into dextrin, soluble starch and other products through physical and chemical methods, and can be customized according to different uses and needs. , by adjusting the base material and additives, starch glue with different colors, properties and viscosity can be made. Starch glue preparation methods mainly include heating method, alkali cooking method, cold processing method, amylase method, etc.

According to the“China Starch Glue Industry Market Survey Research Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center, starch glue has production costs It has the advantages of low cost, wide source of raw materials, natural and environmentally friendly, diverse varieties, and easy use. It is widely used in medicine, textile, food and other industries. Book binding, wood processing, etc. also require large amounts of starch glue. With the promotion and implementation of national environmental protection policies, the environmental protection standards of chemical products continue to improve. Starch glue, as a non-toxic, harmless, green and environmentally friendly adhesive product, will gain good development space under favorable policies.

With the continuous development of the domestic economy, the application fields of adhesives continue to expand, and the market demand continues to grow. China’s adhesive market size is expected to reach 30 billion yuan in 2025. As a type of adhesive, starch glue will maintain a rapid development trend against the background of the continuous development of downstream industries and the increasing market demand.

The gelatinization degree of starch is greatly affected by other compounds, such as sodium hydroxide, salicylate, iodide, etc., which will lower the gelatinization temperature of starch. Sucrose, sodium carbonate, etc. will make starch gelatinization more difficult, so in starch glue During the preparation process, it is necessary to understand the effects of various compounds on starch.

Driven by the continuous push of market demand, the domestic starch glue industry continues to develop, production technology has progressed, and product performance has continued to improve. At present, the main starch glue production companies on the market include Luohe Huiquan Adhesive Co., Ltd., Nanjing Tianshi Landun Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Huizhou Gaochao Packaging Material Technology Co., Ltd., Henan Suda Starch Adhesive Co., Ltd., etc.

Industry analysts said that starch glue has the advantages of being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, easy to use, has a wide variety of products, and has high flexibility. With the domestic The scale of the adhesive market continues to expand, and starch glue has good room for development under favorable policies. Starch glue production enterprises need to increase capital investment, cater to market demand, increase product categories, improve production technology and product quality, and establish brand advantages.
