Propylene Glycol Alginate
Food additives for food & beverage --PGA
1. Propylene glycol alginate (abbreviated as PGA), is derived from alginic acid which is extracted from natural seaweed.
2. It is in the form of white or flaxe n powder. Aqueous solution is viscous colloid.
3. Compared with alginate, it has better resistance against acid and salts. And PGA is a good seaweed based food additive which has excellent performance.
Applications:
1. In food industry, used as thickener, emulsifier and stabilizer.
2. PGA has good acid-proof property, can be used in conditions with pH at 3-5.
3. PGA has strong frothing and emulsifying ability. Widely used as a stabilizer for yoghurt, flavoring and beer foam.
