A type of algae-based acid that, when binded with water, creates a viscous gum that is excellent in absorbing water. This is useful in dehydrating fabrics, especially as a component of a water or flameproofing process.

Primarily used in our industry for mold making and face casting. See http://www.artmolds.com/category26.cfm .
