Adjustable dubbed jelly powder, soft powdered sugar, pudding powder, jelly powder, Western-style ham deployment of powder. Its unique properties can not be replaced by other resins, allowing the rapid development of carrageenan industry, now the worlds total production of carrageenan has far exceeded the annual production of agar. Good water-soluble carrageenan, began to dissolve at 70 degrees, 80 degrees is completely dissolved. Dried carrageenan powder is very stable, long-term placement will not be quickly hydrolyzed than other sugar pectin or alginate stability better. Carrageenan in neutral and alkaline solution is also very stable, even if the heating is not hydrolyzed. Because of the many physical and chemical properties of carrageenan, satisfactory flexibility, transparency and dissolved carrageenan expanded the scope of application performance; safe non-toxic properties have been the UN FAO and WHO Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (UECFA) recognized. So in recent years, the rapid development of carrageenan at home and abroad, a surge in demand |
