Wheat Starch Aytex-P

Aytex-P is an uncooked highly refined wheat starch. Commonly used in bookbinding and paper conservation as an adhesive for paper, leather, fabric, and other porous materials.  It is sought after as a very stable adhesive with excellent long term aging characteristics.  The Aytex-P is exceptionally white in color, gelatinizes at low cooking temperatures and forms cooled pastes which are delicate and smooth in texture.  Has a high water holding capacity, pH 5-6.5 (measured in a 70% slurry). 

To buffer this material, add 10% (by weight) of calcium carbonate. 

This product requires cooking.
