Safety Information
Konjac glucomannan Usage And Synthesis
| Chemical Properties | White or cream to light brown powder. It can be dispersed in hot or cold water with a pH value of 4.0~7.0 and forms a high viscosity solution. Heating and mechanical agitation increase solubility. If a moderate amount of alkali is added to the solution, it can form a thermally stable gel that does not melt even when heated strongly. |
| Uses | Konjac glucomannan is a source of dietary fiber. It can be a thickening and gelling agent in food. |
| benefits | - Improves digestion. Konjac is water soluble and therefore aids digestion.
