Product Description

Sodium alginate is the sodium salt of alginic acid. Its form as a gum, when extracted from the cell walls of brown seaweed (particularly kelp grown in the cold water regions of Ireland, Scotland, North and South America, New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa) It has no discernable flavor.

Sodium alginate works as a cold gelling agent that needs no heat to gel. It gels in the presence of calcium compounds. Most commonly used with calcium chloride to make caviar and spheres. It dilutes while cold with strong agitation. Heat is not needed to produce spherification. Sodium alginate can also be used to produce foams.

Sodium alginate is mainly used in reactive dye printing, as thickener for reactive dyestuffs in textile screen-printing and carpet jet-printing. Alginates do not react with these dyes and wash out easily. Product Category Varieties & Code Specification Grain Size    Application Industrial & Textile Sodium Alginate LT***1 ****0 *0 mesh
