Calcium alginate is classified as a fibrous dextranomer with a high swelling capacity. It is almost odorless and tasteless. Insoluble in water and ether, slightly soluble in ethanol, and slowly soluble in sodium polyphosphate, sodium carbonate and solutions bound to calcium ions. Calcium alginate has good biodegradability and biocompatibility, and can be widely used in various fields such as food, pharmaceutical and industrial welding.
