Sodium alginate (Viscosity 200±20mpa.s)

Sodium alginate is an anionic straight chain polysaccharide. Sodium alginate can be obtained from different species of algae. Sodium alginate has different properties, such as pH-sensitivity, nontoxicity, nonimmunogenicity. Sodium alginate has weak gelation, viscosity, and film-forming properties. Sodium alginate can be utilized to prepare gels and film materials for food preservation. Sodium alginate is a versatile functional biomaterial for viscosity enhancement, stabilizer, matrixing agent, encapsulation polymer, bioadhesive and film former[1][2][3].
