Uses and synthesis of Carrageenan powder

Carrageenan powder, also known as carrageenan, carrageenan. Carrageenan (also known as carrageenan or algin) is a natural polysaccharide plant gum derived from red algae. Carrageenan is widely used in food industry, chemical industry, biochemistry, medical research and other fields. Carrageenan has the properties of forming hydrophilic colloid, gel, thickening, emulsification, membrane and stable dispersion, so it is widely used in dairy products, ice cream, fruit juice drinks, bread and water

Applications/Functions of Carrageenan powder

1. Thickening agent; Stabilizer; Emulsifier; Suspension agent; Gelling agent; Binder.
2. Carrageenan powder is a thickening agent, which can be used in all kinds of food in accordance with the requirements of production. It also has the function of clarifying agent and stabilizing agent.

Physicochemical Property of Carrageenan powder

Translucent, crumpled, faintly glossy flakes or white to yellowish powder, odorless and slightly algal. κ-carrageenan and ε-carrageenan are soluble in hot water, λ-carrageenan is soluble in water, but they are not soluble in organic solvents. Dry carrageenan is very stable and does not hydrolyze even when heated in neutral and alkaline solutions, but hydrolysis easily occurs in acidic solutions below Ph 4.

Production methodprocess of Carrageenan powder

Carrageenan powder is treated with a saline-alkali treatment solution composed of alkali and salt of alkaline earth metal from red algae carrageenaceae, and then rinsed, exposed, boiled (100℃, 40 ~ 60min), filtered, frozen, dehydrated, dried, crushed and sterilized to prepare the finished product. Or pour the filtered filtrate into isopropyl alcohol, dissolve carrageenan under stirring, and then centrifuge separation, drying and crushing to produce the finished product.
