[Description]:
Propylene Glycol Alginate is of white powder and it is easy to dissolved in water and its
water solution become gel. Propylene Glycol
Alginate (PGA) is an ester of alginic acid in which originally derived
from brown algae as some of the carboxyl groups are esterified with propylene glycol, some
neutralized with an appropriate alkali and some remain free. It is in the form of white or
flaxen powder and can be easy dissolved in water.
[Applications]:
Food industry
1). In food industry, PGA can be used as thickener,emulsifier and stabilizer.
2). PGA has good acid-proof property,can be used in conditions with PH at 3-5.
3). PGA has strong frothing and emulsifying ability.Widely used as a stabilizer for yoghurt,
flavoring and beer foam.
4). PGA can be used as texture improver, PGA can be used in flour, noodles and instant
foods.
