Acetylated Starch (E1420) or Starch Acetate (INS1420) is modified tapioca starch form obtained by esterification of native cassava starch with acetic anhydride or vinyl acetate. The esterification/acetylation results in substitution of hydroxyl groups with acetyl esters. It is commonly used as a food additive.
