Lithium Alginate

Characteristic

Lithium Alginate

Lithium alginate is a natural plant polysaccharide derived from the marine plant brown algae. It is almost odorless, tasteless and dissolves slowly in water into a viscous colloidal solution. Lithium alginate is insoluble in alcohol and in hydro alcoholic solutions in which the alcohol content is greater than 30% by weight. Moreover, it is also insoluble in chloroform, ether, and acid with a pH value lower than 3.
