Popular questions
  1. Asus e402 w where is the hard drive?

    This isn’t related to the food additive E402; E402 denotes potassium alginate, a seaweed-derived thickener/stabiliser used to form calcium-set gels, thicken sauces, and stabilize emulsions.

  2. Dx-e402 how to set up?

    E402 refers to potassium alginate, not a device; in food processing it’s dispersed in water (often under high shear) and, if gelling is desired, calcium is added to set the gel.

  3. How is potassium alginate used in food?

    It’s used as a thickener, stabiliser, and gelling agent from seaweed. Dispersed in liquids to increase viscosity and stabilize emulsions/foams, it forms heat-stable gels when calcium is added (e.g., spherification, restructured foods, desserts).

  4. How to change asus e402 to boot from usb?

    This question isn’t about the food additive E402; E402 is potassium alginate, a seaweed-derived thickener/stabiliser used to gel with calcium, thicken sauces, and stabilize emulsions.

  5. How to clear space on asus e402?

    Not related to the additive E402; E402 means potassium alginate, a plant-derived thickener/stabiliser used for gelling with calcium and stabilizing emulsions and foams in foods.

  1. Is propylene glycol alginate bad for you?

    No—propylene glycol alginate (E405) is approved in the EU and US and is generally considered safe at permitted levels; most people tolerate it well, though very high intakes may cause mild digestive upset in some individuals.

  2. What is propylene glycol alginate made from?

    It’s made by reacting alginic acid extracted from brown seaweed (kelp) with propylene glycol. Some remaining acid groups may be neutralized with alkali (e.g., sodium).

  3. How do they make propylene glycol alginate?

    Manufacturers extract alginic acid from brown seaweed, purify it, then partially esterify it with propylene glycol under controlled conditions. The material is then neutralized as needed, dried, and milled into a powder.

  4. How is propylene glycol alginate made?

    By partially esterifying seaweed-derived alginic acid with propylene glycol, leaving some carboxyl groups free or neutralized with alkali, then drying the product. This process yields an emulsifier, stabilizer, and thickener used in foods.

  5. How to fix e405 fuel comms error?

    That appears to be a device/vehicle fault code unrelated to the food additive E405 (propylene glycol alginate); consult your equipment manual or the manufacturer’s support for troubleshooting.
