Carrageenan for Toothpaste
Carrageenan, known for its high stability, is an ideal adhesive and thickener for medicated toothpaste formulations that are complex and challenging to stabilize. Carrageenan is not only highly salt-resistant and enzyme- resistant but also improves the thixotropy and dispersibility of the paste. It serves as an ideal adhesive and thickener.
Advantages of application:
1.Enhances and improves the stability of the paste.
2. The paste has a very fine, smooth, and shiny texture.
3.Exhibits special thixotropy and can self-fuse after breaking.
CARRAGEENAN is a kind of nature ploysaccharide gum extracted from red algae. Our main product is K-carrageenan powder. It has great ability to form gel and owns high viscosity and solubility, satisfying elasticity, transparency and solubility. Owing to the high stability, the gel intensity and viscosity will be not degraded even after long-term storage. And, it can not be hydrolyzed in the heating neuter and alkalescent liquid. It has good combination with protein, which it can interact with cationic protein molecule between hydronium reactivity. Function: Coagulant, thickener, stabilizer, suspension. Food Industry: Soft candy, jelly, ham, canned meat, ice cream, beverage, milk, pudding, beer, bread, etc. Commodity Chemical Industry: Toothpaste, detergent, cosmetics, air freshener, etc. Pharmacy Industry: Capsule, suspension, barium sulfate for disperser, etc. Biochemical Industry: Carrier of microbe and immobilized cell, etc.
