Precautions:
1, moisture-proof: starch is easy to absorb moisture, swell and even rot and mildew. Therefore, it must be kept dry during storage to prevent moisture. If you encounter high temperature under high humidity, starch may gelatinize. Therefore, the general indoor temperature should be kept below 65438 05℃, the relative humidity should not exceed 70%, and attention should be paid to ventilation.
2, to prevent odor: because of the strong water absorption of starch, while absorbing water, the performance of absorbing odor is also very strong. Therefore, when storing, it is necessary to prevent it from being stored with smelly items. If it is polluted by odor, it can be dried to reduce or eliminate odor.
3. The spots of starch are caused by impurities such as cellulose and sand. The number of spots indicates the purity and quality of starch.
