Sodium alginate is a by-product from brown algae kelp or Sargassum. It is a natural polysaccharide with good stability, solubility, viscosity and safety. Sodium alginate has been widely used in food, industrial and daily cosmetics and health products
1. Food
Sodium alginate is used to replace starch and as a stabilizer for various foods
2. Health Products
Sodium alginate is used as a binder for tablets, and alginic acid is used as a disintegrant for quick-release tablets
3. Printing and Textile Industry
Sodium alginate is used as a reactive dye paste in the printing and dyeing industry, which is superior to grain starch and other pastes.

1. In the production of ice cream, Sodium alginate can increase the formability and melt resistance of ice cream, and improve the stability of ice cream in the case of temperature fluctuations.

2. Sodium alginate used in ham and ham sausage, can make the product good elasticity, good slicing, moderate toughness and brittleness, tender and smooth mouth.

3. Sodium alginate can make milk produce the freezing effect, play the role of freezing and shaping. In sour milk, soft cheese and cream, the emulsion mixture is stabilized and the formation of gelation is induced.

4. Used for the production of general hard candy and soft candy, can make the product smooth and more elastic, less viscosity, increased stability.

5. When making bread, Sodium alginate is added to increase its water-holding capacity, thus delaying aging.
