Corn Starch or cornflour is a carbohydrate derived from the corn's white endosperm present in the kernel of the corn. These kernels are ground into a white-powdery substance used as a thickening agent. This powdery-white substance finds application in various end-uses like culinary, household, and industrial.

Corn Starch has great thickening properties and is composed of long starch molecule chains. The thickening occurs when it's heated along with moisture causing it to unravel and swell; this swelling or gelatinization results in the thickening. As a result, it appears to be white, tasteless, translucent and odourless powder.

Corn Starch is mainly used as a thickening agent in cooking applications where it is added to sauces, glazes, casseroles, pies, marinades, soups, and gravies, which is driving theindustrial demand for corn starch. It can also be used to coat desserts like pies, tarts etc., and for coating fruits that prevent them from turning watery or runny.

In addition, it works as an anti-caking agent and coats food products preventing clumping, which further propels the market growth. Furthermore, it is employed in other industrial processes like papermaking and the production of industrial adhesives, further boosting the market demand. Also, it is added as a key ingredient in several cosmetics and oral pharmaceutical products as well as in surgical gloves as a lubricant, all of which are creating more growth opportunities in the sector.
