Tapioca Starch Powder

Tapioca starch is a fine, white, odorless powder extracted from the roots of the cassava plant. Tapioca starch is applied during wet-end addition, surface sizing, and coating processes to improve paper strength, smoothness, and printability. It enhances dry strength, improves fiber bonding, and reduces dusting and linting. As a surface sizing agent, it provides better ink holdout, brightness, and surface finish, resulting in improved print quality. Tapioca starch is biodegradable, cost-effective, and suitable for writing, printing, packaging, and specialty papers.
