Sodium alginate is a natural polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed. It is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, textile, printing and other industries due to its excellent thickening, gelling, stabilizing and film-forming properties. It can form viscous solutions in water and produce thermally irreversible gels when reacting with calcium ions, which makes it very popular in food processing and pharmaceutical preparations.
In the food industry, sodium alginate is commonly used as a thickener, stabilizer, emulsifier and gelling agent. It helps improve the texture of products, maintain stability, prevent syneresis, and extend shelf life. and is widely used in dairy products, beverages, confectionery, meat products and other fields.
In the pharmaceutical field, sodium alginate serves as an important excipient for tablets, capsules, suspensions and controlled-release preparations. It can be used as a binder, disintegrant and sustained-release matrix, helping to improve drug forming properties and control drug release rate. It also has good biocompatibility and biodegradability, making it safe for human consumption and medical applications.
