Modified Cassava Starch Market Size Worth USD 4.07 Billion by 2034 | CAGR: 5.78%

The Modified cassava starch market size is expected to reach USD 4.07 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Modified Cassava Starch Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Type (Acetylated Starch, Phosphated Starch, Oxidized Starch, Cationic Starch, Pre-gelatinized Starch, Others), By Application, By Function, By Region; Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Modified cassava starch is a processed form of natural cassava starch that has been chemically, physically, or enzymatically altered to enhance its functional properties. Unlike native cassava starch, which has limited stability under heat, acidity, or mechanical stress, modified cassava starch exhibits improved characteristics, including better thickening, gelling, binding, and resistance to retrogradation. Common modification techniques include cross-linking, oxidation, acetylation, and hydrolysis, each tailored to specific industrial needs.

One of the primary uses of modified cassava starch is in the food industry, where it serves as a stabilizer, thickener, or texturizer in products such as sauces, soups, dairy products, and baked goods. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and acidic conditions makes it ideal for canned and frozen foods. Additionally, it improves moisture retention in gluten-free products, enhancing their texture. In the pharmaceutical sector, modified cassava starch serves as a binder or disintegrant in tablet formulations, ensuring the proper release of the drug.
