Food Grade Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate

Food-grade magnesium chloride hexahydrate is mainly used as a food additive. Below are its key roles in food:

1. Protein Coagulant

As its core function, it is widely used in soybean product processing. It quickly breaks the colloidal stability of soybean milk proteins, making them aggregate into a uniform coagulum for producing various soybean products.

2. Nutritional Fortification: Supplementing Magnesium

As an essential mineral for human metabolism, magnesium is abundant in food-grade magnesium chloride hexahydrate and easily absorbed, so it is often used as a nutritional fortifier in foods.

3. Texture Regulation: Stabilizer and Thickener

It acts as a stabilizer and thickener in some foods, improving texture and stability, enhancing taste, and preventing stratification, precipitation and caking.

4. Flavor and Mineral Regulation

With a slight bitter taste, it adjusts food flavor in proper dosage, supplements mineral content and optimizes nutritional ratio.

5. Auxiliary Functions: Preservation and Fermentation Assistance

It inhibits microbial growth to extend the shelf life of aquatic products (e.g., fish and shrimp) and acts as a fermentation aid to improve the quality of sake and fermented foods.
