{{about|the food additive E405|the Italian E405 locomotive|FS Class E.405}}
'''Propylene glycol alginate''' ('''PGA''') is an [[Emulsion | emulsifier]], [[Stabilizer_(chemistry) | stabilizer]], and [[Thickening_agent | thickener]] used in food products. It is a [[food additive]] with [[E number]] E405. Chemically, propylene glycol alginate is an [[ester]] of [[alginic acid]], which is derived from [[kelp]]. Some of the [[carboxyl group]]s are esterified with [[propylene glycol]], some are neutralized with an appropriate [[alkali]], and some remain free.<ref name="fao"/>
