Sodium Alginate
Sodium Alginate, E401, CAS no.9005-38-3, food thickener, manufacturing process from brown seaweeds. Sodium alginates are soluble in both hot and cold water and are available in a variety of viscosity ranges with various gelling properties. Sodium Alginate solutions are converted, in the presence of calcium ions (calcium chloride or other soluble calcium salt), to Calcium Alginate, the heat-stable gelled form. As an experienced Sodium Alginate manufacturer and supplier, we has been supplying and exporting Sodium Alginate: Super low viscosity (10-100cps), Low viscosity (100-200cps), Middle viscosity (200-500 cps), High viscosity (500-1000 cps), Super high viscosity (above 1000 cps) for almost 10 years, please be assured to buy from us. Any inquiries about price and the market trend please feel free to contact us, we will reply you within 1 working day.

Sodium alginate is a natural polymer derived from brown seaweed, known for its remarkable thickening, gelling, and stabilizing properties. Widely employed in the food industry, sodium alginate is utilized to create gels and provide texture in various culinary applications, such as in the formation of gel-like spheres through molecular gastronomy techniques. It also finds use in the pharmaceutical and textile industries, where it serves as a thickener in liquid medicines and a sizing agent in textile printing, respectively. Sodium alginate's biocompatibility and ability to form gels in the presence of calcium ions make it a versatile and valuable substance in numerous fields.
Sodium Alginate is a water-swollen, cross-linked polymer that is a product of a simple chemical reaction between monomers. It is a great water absorber, as structurally, the hydrophilic groups are attached to its polymeric backbone. It is resistant to dissolution because of the cross-linked network chains. It is a white or yellowish powder which is odourless, tasteless & slowly soluble in water. It reacts with calcium salt to form a thermo-irreversible form, because of which it is widely used in molecular gastronomy.
textile grade sodium alginate is an ideal thickener in reactive dye printing as it can not react with reactive dyes,as a water-soluble polymer,sodium alginate can be easily dissolved in water to form a viscous solution,in the printing and dyeing industry,sodium alginate has good washing out,high paste off rate,the film formed after printing on fabric has certain adhesion and flexibility,it does not react with dyes and other auxiliaries,the film formed after the film even after baking or bigh-temperature steam,it will be easily removed in the washing process,so that the hand feeling of the fabric is soft -
Sodium alginate use�? 1. In printing and dyeing industry, sodium alginate has unique properties, print out pattern bright-coloured, line is clear, the color yield high, colour and lustre is uniform, ink the drying speed is fast, easy desizing, permeability and feel is the best. Middle and low viscosity sodium alginate are suitable for dyeing and printing requirements.
printing sodium alginate very suitable for flat bed and rotary screen printing and handle printing Advantage: 1ã??High purity and stability. 2ã??Good filtration, high permeability rate. 3ã??Easy to color and good washing out. 4ã??The pattern is clear and bright. welcome to contact me !
