The properties of the substance depend directly on the dextrose equivalent:
4-6% - anti-crystallization ability, high degree of binding ability, increases the freezing point of products;
9-12% - the substance contains saccharide macromolecules, no sweet taste, increases the viscosity;
13-17% - maltodextrin is characterized by low sweetness, well soluble in water;
