Semi-refined carrageenan is a family of linear sulfated polysaccharides that are extracted from red seaweeds.

Semi-purified carrageenans are obtained by boiling algae in an alkaline solution that contains potassium hydroxide. Potassium prevents the carrageenan from dissolving in solution, but allows the proteins and carbohydrates of the algae to dissolve. The algae are then removed from the solution, washed and dried. What remains - carrageenan celluloses are crushed into powder.
