● Solubility: insoluble in cold water, but swellable into a rubber mass, insoluble in organic solvents, easily soluble in hot water into a translucent colloidal solution (in 70 °C hot water above the dissolution rate increases;
Gelation: It can generate thermoreversible gel in the presence of potassium ions;
Thickening: When the concentration is low, a low-viscosity sol is formed, which is close to Newtonian fluid. When the concentration is increased to form a high-viscosity sol, it is a non-Newtonian fluid.
● Synergy: synergistic effect with colloidal locust bean gum, konjac gum, xanthan gum and other colloids, can improve the elasticity and water retention of the gel;
● Health value: Carrageenan has the basic characteristics of soluble dietary fiber. Carrageenan degraded in vivo can form soluble complexes with fibrin.
