Potato starch market stood at USD 4.3 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2022 to 2027 to reach USD 5.2 billion by the end of 2027. Potato starch is derived from a tuber-producing plant ‘potatoes’, which is a crop cultivated at a large scale worldwide. Potato starch contains less lipid, protein, and ash contents compared to starch derived from tapioca and corn. The granule size of potato starch is larger and pure, with long amylose and amylopectin chain length, compared to starched cereals, such as wheat, corn, and rice. However, certain properties, such as low thermal decomposition, thermal and shear resistance, and the high tendency of retrogradation, limit the use of potato starch in industrial applications. Potato starch is preferred over other starches, such as corn starch, due to its high consistency on pasting, excellent and flexible file formation, binding power, and low gelatinization temperature.
