1.Potassium Alginate is used as the stabilizer of ice cream instead of starch and gelatin, which can control the formation of ice crystals2.Potassium Alginate is used as a thickener in salad dressings, puddings, jams, ketchup, and canned products to improve their stability and reduce fluid leakage.
3.Adding potassium Alginate to bread, cake and other products can improve the uniformity of internal tissue and water retention, and prolong the storage time.
4.In the field of medicine, it is widely used in pharmaceutical preparation, clinical treatment and cell culture.
