Product function and application
Carrageenan is a food additive used as thickening and stabilizing agents for a wide range of products.
Carrageenan is a family of linear sulphate polysaccarides extracted from red seaweeds. These chemicals are large, highly flexible molecules which curl around each other forming double-helical structures. This gives them the ability to form a variety of different gels at room temperature. They are widely used in the food and other industries as thickening and stabilizing agents. A particular advantage is that they are thixotropic -- they thin under shear stress and recover their viscosity once the stress is removed. This means that they are easy to pump but stiffen again afterwards.
Can be used as:
1. As stabilizer and/or emulsifier for many food products, such as chocolate
2. As additive in instant food drinks, to keep food particles liquid in mixture
3. As emulsifier, to give certain foods a smooth consistency, while serving as a binder to keep mixture of food intact
4. As medicinal ingredients in the preparation of surgical jellies
5. As sizing for textiles and toothpastes
We have available an extensive line of carrageenan products for a variety of applications.
