Study on Shape Optimization of Calcium–Alginate Beads

Abstract:

In this paper, calcium–alginate beads have been manufactured by physically cross-linked technology, by dripping an aqueous alginate solution into a solution of calcium salt as a crosslinker. The effect of various elements controlling beads shape such as solution concentration, flow rate and the distance between the orifice tip and surface of the cross-linking solution were studied. The various elements affected the gelling rate and diameter and weight were studied. The findings indicated that shape of alginate beads in the hydrated state was strongly dependent on the flow rate and concentration of sodium alginate solutions.
