vegetable gelatin propylene glycol alginate for food production

Propylene glycol alginate 1.Viscosity:50-1200mpa.s 2.water solulable and gel 3.thickening agent, emulsifier and stabilizer

Propylene glycol alginate (PGA) :

white powder and it is easy to dissolved in water and its water solution become gel

 

Propylence glycol alginate(abbreviated as PGA),is derived from alginic acid which is extracted from natural seaweed.It is in the from of white of flaxen powder.Aqueous solution is viscous colloid.Compared with alginate,it has better resistance against acid and salts.And PGA is a good seaweed based food additive which has excellent performance.
