What is Agar Agar Powder CAS 9002-18-0?
AGAR powder (CAS 9002-18-0), as a natural polysaccharide colloid, occupies an important position in the fields of food, medicine, industry, etc. due to its excellent gelling property, stability and safety. Its health benefits (such as dietary fiber supplementation) and industrial compatibility (such as suspension and thickening) make it an indispensable functional raw material in multiple industries
Agar Agar Powder CAS 9002-18-0 Use
1. Food industry
AGAR powder, due to its unique gelling and stability properties, is widely used in the following food fields:
Jelly, pudding and gummy candies
The addition amount is about 2.5%. When mixed with sugar solution, it can be made into soft candies and jelly with high transparency and a chewy texture.
Beverage suspension agent
When the concentration is 0.01%-0.05%, it can evenly suspend fruit particles (such as granular oranges), extending the shelf life.
Dairy products and ice cream:
Adding 0.3%-0.5% can improve the texture, reduce ice crystals and enhance the resistance to melting (such as in yogurt and ice cream).
Canned food and meat products
A dosage of 0.2%-0.5% can bond minced meat to form a gel, enhancing the structural stability of canned food and meat products.
Baking and Desserts
Used for pie and cake icing (0.5%-1.5%), enhancing crispness and moisture retention.
2. Medicine and Scientific Research
Microbial culture medium
As a coagulant (concentration 1%-1.5%), it is used for bacterial culture to provide a stable gel environment.
Pharmaceutical preparations
It can be used as a base for ointments, a capsule adhesive or a sustained-release agent to prolong the efficacy of the medicine.
Health benefits:
It contains dietary fiber (80.9%), which can promote intestinal peristalsis, lower blood lipids and assist in regulating blood sugar.
3. Industry and Daily Chemicals
Beer clarifying agent
Assist in removing suspended impurities and accelerate the clarification of the wine liquid.
Cosmetics
It is used in creams and lotions to enhance stability and moisture retention.
Other industries:
It is used in papermaking, coatings, adhesives, etc., to enhance the viscosity and structure of the products.
