| 20080306020 | Skin-Protecting Alkalinity-Controlling Composition and the Use Thereof - A skin-protecting alkalinity-controlling composition comprises one or more carboxylic acid polysaccharides. Said compositions are capable of providing buffering, and thus avoiding a major increase in the pH of an aqueous system and/or are capable of reducing the pH of aqueous systems, in which alkalinity is formed as a result of chemical and/or biological reactions. The compositions may be used in personal care products, such as skin creams and lotions, hygiene products, wound care products, fabric treating products etc. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20080317790 | Process for Treatment of Kappa Carrageenan - The present invention relates to a process for treating precipitated carrageenan, comprising the steps of (a) treating the precipitated carrageenan with an aqueous treatment solution containing an alkali or a salt, (b) washing the treated precipitated carrageenan in water, and (c) drying the washed precipitated carrageenan. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20080317791 | Kappa Carrageenan - Disclosed is a carrageenan composition comprising sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20080317926 | Carrageenan Process - Disclosed is a process for producing a carrageenan composition, comprising the steps of: cleaning iota carrageenan-containing seaweed in water; treating the cleaned seaweed with an aqueous treatment solution, the aqueous treatment solution containing about 3-30 wt %, preferably 10-25 wt %, and most preferably 15-20 wt %, of an alkali treatment compound; subjecting the treated seaweed to washing with water; and processing the washed seaweed to produce the carrageenan composition. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20110008470 | Carrageenan modified by ion-exchange process - A composition comprises an ion-exchanged carrageenan. The carrageenan may be a traditionally extracted or neutrally extracted iota or kappa carrageenan. The ion-exchanged carrageenan has reduced gelling cation contents, reduced gelling temperature, and reduced melting temperature, as compared to its non-ion-exchanged counterpart. The ion-exchanged carrageenan may be mixed with another carrageenan to form a carrageenan product having a unique gelling temperature and melting temperature. Also disclosed is a process for making an ion-exchanged carrageenan composition. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110028426 | DEWATERING BIOMASS MATERIAL COMPRISING POLYSACCHARIDE, METHOD FOR EXTRACTING POLYSACCHARIDE FROM BIOMASS MATERIAL, AND DEWATERED BIOMASS MATERIAL - A process for dewatering biomass material comprising polysaccharide and water. The process comprises wetting the biomass material with a wetting composition comprising an alcohol to form a biomass slurry comprising wetted biomass material and a liquid component, mechanically separating a portion of the liquid component from the biomass slurry, and mechanically separating at least a portion of the water from the wetted biomass material. A process for extracting polysaccharide from the biomass material and a dewatered biomass material are also disclosed. | 02-03-2011 |
