What are the applications of silica in food?
The main component of so-called silica is usually described as sand or glass powder. The U.S. food regulator has confirmed that the main ingredient in Wendy's brand of hot sauce does indeed have an anti-caking agent that contains silica.
When used in food, it is usually used as a food additive, and milk powder also contains some of these ingredients. Because the ingredients contained in the storage and handling creamer powder are high in fat and are prone to clumping, and irrigation kits will be adversely affected at times of low flow, therefore, in the production of the product, the manufacturer will add an appropriate amount of silica , which can significantly improve the caking and low flow problems of non-dairy creamer powder.
Under the premise of an appropriate amount of silicon dioxide, it will not affect the health of consumers. Creamer can reduce the proportion of insoluble matter, reduce production time, reduce and avoid contamination of production machines by related powders, which can prevent contamination caused by storage. yuan.
