Function
1. Liquefies starch slurries in fuel ethanol production to enable efficient saccharification.
2. Lowers viscosity in starch-based adhesives and paper coatings, improving pumping and application.
3. Removes starch sizes from textiles during desizing, leaving fabrics clean and ready for finishing.
4. Degrades starchy soils in detergents, improving cleaning performance on fabrics and hard surfaces.
