Propylene Glycol Alginate(PGA)
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.
Main applications
1、 In food insustry,used as thickener,emulsifier and stabilizer.
