Technological supplement and alternative
The group of H&F Amid pectins complement the range of Classic pectins technologically and expand the application area of pectins.
H&F Amid pectins are produced by suspending the dried pectin in alcohol and treating it with ammonia. This process modifies a defined number of methyl ester groups into amide groups (amidation).
The special properties of the H&F Amid pectins result in different gel textures, offer technological benefits in certain areas and make additional functionalities utilisable.
