Types of plant hollow capsules

According to the different sources of plants, the types of plant hollow capsules are:

Starch capsule: Starch plant capsule is a new capsule made of natural plant starch without animal source materials. Starch was extracted by means of collection, cleaning, pressing and purification. The main crops are cassava, corn, potatoes, etc. Cassava starch is a kind of starch mainly composed of amylopectin. Its moisture content is similar to that of gelatin, and its water resistance and oxygen resistance are very good. It has a good protective effect on powder products and liquid products, which is similar to gelatin.

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose capsule: It is a kind of capsule from plant sources. The water content of the hollow capsule is 4-6%, especially 3%. The water content is small, and it will not produce brittleness. The toughness and chemical stability are good, ensuring that the effective ingredients will not decrease during storage. The main plant sources are cotton, bark, etc. This capsule has the characteristics of a special acid resistant polymer, which can resist the decomposition of gastric acid. It will decompose 20 minutes after leaving the acidic environment and entering the intestinal environment of PH5.8. Therefore, it can better transport probiotics, enzymes and many other sports nutrients.
