Products classified under HTS 3505.10.00.20
Yellow Corn Dextrin Powder
Yellow corn dextrin powder is a starch degradation product produced by roasting corn starch under controlled conditions, resulting in a reducing sugar content not exceeding 10 percent dextrose equivalent. It falls under HTS 3505.10.00.20 as a dextrin used primarily in adhesives, paper sizing, and food thickening. This classification distinguishes it from higher sugar content products in heading 1702.
White Dextrin for Paper Sizing
White dextrin is a lightly hydrolyzed starch derivative with low viscosity, ideal for surface sizing in paper manufacturing to improve strength and printability. Classified under HTS 3505.10.00.20 as 'other' dextrins due to its modified starch nature and reducing sugar below 10%. It excludes enzymatic pre-tanning products covered elsewhere.
Pregelatinized Corn Dextrin
Pregelatinized corn dextrin is a modified starch cooked and dried to allow instant dispersion in cold water, used in instant foods and adhesives. It qualifies under HTS 3505.10.00.20 as a dextrin/modified starch with controlled reducing sugar levels per chapter definitions. Not covered by exclusions like yeasts or printing gelatins.
Pharmaceutical Dextrin Excipient
Pharmaceutical-grade dextrin serves as a binder and disintegrant in tablet formulations, with low DE to avoid sweetness. Under HTS 3505.10.00.20 as other dextrins, distinct from Chapter 30 medicaments or blood fractions per notes.
Tapioca Dextrin for Adhesives
Tapioca dextrin, derived from cassava starch, offers high tack for envelope and postage stamp adhesives. Classified in HTS 3505.10.00.20 as other dextrins with DE <10%, used in modified form excluding chapter-prohibited items.
Wheat Dextrin Soluble Fiber
Wheat dextrin is a highly soluble modified starch marketed as dietary fiber supplement base, with low DE per chapter definition. HTS 3505.10.00.20 applies as other dextrins, not as food prep per exclusions.
British Gum Dextrin
British gum dextrin, a traditional roasted potato starch product, serves in foundry adhesives and drilling fluids. Falls under HTS 3505.10.00.20 for other dextrins with standard low DE.
Canary Dextrin for Artists
Canary dextrin is a pale yellow, fine powder used as a pastel fixative and in watercolor media. HTS 3505.10.00.20 covers it as other dextrin, excluding printing industry gelatins.
Potato Dextrin for Textile Sizing
Potato dextrin provides film-forming properties for warp sizing in cotton weaving, though listed separately it's included in 'other' for non-specific uses. HTS 3505.10.00.20 applies broadly to dextrins.
Industrial Starch Glue Dextrin
Industrial starch glue dextrin is a pyrodextrin used as a base for water-based adhesives in packaging and woodworking. HTS 3505.10.00.20 covers it as 'other' dextrins, excluding glues explicitly based on starches which start at 3505.20 but fitting here for dextrin-specific types.
