5 It is known that starch or starch-containing substances can be reacted with cationic etherifying agents by socalled dry processes. In processes such as these, the reaction is not carried out in an aqueous suspension, but with powder-form starch.
According to US-PS 4 127 563, cationization is carried out with alkylidene halohydrins at a pH value of <9 and at a temperature of from 25 to The reaction halohydrin with starch in alkaline medium, but least 30°C below the gelatinization starch, is claimed US-PS 3 346 563. EP-PS 31 477 also describes process for alkylidene epoxides which carried out presence water, calcium hydroxide or oxide temperatures 50 120°C. DE-OS 29 35 338 cationization starch. In this case, however, alkali excess has be neutralized. According 4 281 109, it advisable premix etherifying agent alkalineearth then mix resulting ~pas~N. 4 15 J o l k 2 1' starch. This procedure said achieve more uniform rapid mixing reagents so that, example, there are no local accumulations could lead swelling starch. One feature common all processes mentioned above that etherification mixture stirred until over. The naturally takes longer decreasing temperature. Reaction vessels occupied correspondingly long periods have stirred. addition, losses yield accepted. The object present invention provide production cationic ethers despite low only very little stirring energy applied, briefly good yields obtained without any need sifting. Accordingly, relates dry by medium characterized 5 40 0 C Sfinely divided silica. A thus prepared pH value>9 by weight suspension) According to the invention, the mixture of starch, alkali or alkaline-earth hydroxide or oxide, silica and alkylidene epoxide, which is generally used in the form F of an aqueous solution, is homogenized in an intensive mixer for between 10 seconds and 25 minutes and preferably for between 20 seconds and 5 minutes, subsequently removed from the circuit and the cationization reaction left to continue to completion in the storage container envisaged, such as a silo for example, or even in the packs intended for shipment.

In addition, it has been found to be of advantage to carry out the process at a temperature in the range over which the ambient temperature of ordinary warehouses varies, for example as a result of seasonal fluctuations, i.e. at a temperature in the range of from 18 to 30 0 C and more especially at a temperature in the range of from to Tests have shown that the epoxide used reacts off completely. At a temperature of 20 0 C, it is only possible to detect traces of <10 ppm epoxide>100 u >100 Fv >100 p.
