Physicochemical Properties
It is almost white powder, odorless, tasteless
.It decomposes at about 150 ℃ without melting. It has good heat resistance, acid resistance and high stability to enzyme. It is insoluble in non-polar organic solvents and insoluble in cold water, but it can be dispersed in water in a slightly agitated way. When heated, it is dissolved into a transparent solution. After cooling, a transparent and solid gel is formed.
