Additional Information: Sodium Alginate is a natural polysaccharide polymer extracted from brown algae, complying with food and pharmaceutical grade quality standards. It has excellent water solubility, gelation, thickening and film-forming properties, and can form stable thermally irreversible gels with calcium ions. It features good biocompatibility, non-toxicity and strong system stability, capable of improving product texture, enhancing viscosity and preventing component precipitation. Widely used in food gel and thickener formulations, pharmaceutical sustained-release carrier materials, medical dressing raw materials and cosmetic emulsification stabilizers, it is a high-value natural functional auxiliary material widely applied in multiple industries.
