| Water Solubility: | Insoluble in water. | Storage Conditions: | Alginic acid dispersions are susceptible to microbial spoilage onstorage, which may result in some depolymerization and hence adecrease in viscosity. Dispersions should therefore be preserved withan antimicrobial preservative such as benzoic acid; potassiumsorbate; sodium benzoate; sorbic acid; or paraben. Concentrationsof 0.1–0.2% are usually used.Alginic acid hydrolyzes slowly at warm temperatures producing amaterial with a lower molecular weight and lower dispersionviscosity.Alginic acid dispersions are susceptible to microbial spoilage onstorage, which may result in some depolymerization and hence adecrease in viscosity.
