Indigestible Maltodextrin
Other Names:
Resistant Maltodextrin
Resistant Dextrin
Indigestible Dextrin
Soluble Dietary Fiber
Soluble Corn Fiber
2. Product Introduction
Indigestible Maltodextrin is a soluble dietary fiber produced from corn starch through heat treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, purification and separation.
Unlike conventional maltodextrin, which can be readily digested and absorbed, indigestible maltodextrin contains a high proportion of indigestible glucose polymers that resist digestion in the small intestine.
It has low sweetness, low viscosity, good solubility and excellent processing stability, making it suitable for beverages, dairy products, nutrition products, bakery products, snacks and dietary fiber supplements.
3. Key Features
Feature Description
High Dietary Fiber Typically ≥85–90% dietary fiber depending on grade
Soluble Fiber Easily dissolves in water
Low Sweetness Approximately 1/10 of sucrose sweetness for typical resistant dextrin
Low Viscosity Allows relatively high fiber addition without significantly increasing viscosity
Low Flavor Impact Mild taste and little influence on the original flavor
Good Heat Stability Suitable for various thermal processing conditions
Good Acid Stability Can be used in acidic beverages and foods
Low Calorie Fiber fraction has a low energy contribution
Clean Label Friendly Can be used as a soluble dietary fiber ingredient
Commercial resistant dextrin products commonly specify around 90% or more dietary fiber, while different grades can have different specifications.
Indigestible Maltodextrin can be widely used in:
Functional beverages
Fiber drinks
Sports & nutrition products
Protein powders
Meal replacement products
Nutrition bars
Bakery products
Biscuits & cookies
Dairy products
Yogurt
Ice cream
Dietary fiber supplements
Recommended Positioning
A highly soluble, low-viscosity dietary fiber for everyday food, beverage and nutrition applications.
It is particularly suitable for formulations that require high fiber content with minimal impact on sweetness, viscosity, taste and texture.
