Composition (C) for coating ingestible solid forms, comprising, per 100% of its mass&#x2014;from 10% to 90% of a graft copolymer of polyvinyl alcohol and of polyethers (Pi), and&#x2014;from 10% to 90% by mass of an auxiliary coating agent, characterized in that a non-zero mass proportion of said auxiliary agent is polydextrose. Processes for the preparation and use thereof.

Coating composition comprising polydextrose, process for preparing same and use of coating ingestible solid forms

The present invention relates to a novel desiccant powder and its use for the drying of solid substrates wetted by an aqueous or oily liquid such as, in particular, grains or seeds having undergone a coating or surface film-forming treatment. According to the invention, this desiccant powder contains at least 50% by weight of absorbents with respect to the toal weight of the said powder, being preferably available in the form of particles having a mean diameter less than about 100.mu., the said absorbents being constituted of at least one aluminosilicate, in particular mica, to at least 25% by weight with respect to the total weight of the said absorbents. This powder makes possible, in particular, the drying of colored grains or seeds.
