Property of sodium alginate?

Sodium alginate is slightly soluble in water and insoluble in most organic solvents. It dissolves in alkaline solution, making the solution sticky. Sodium alginate powder becomes wet with water, and the hydration of particles makes its surface sticky. Then the particles quickly bond together to form a lump, and the lump slowly hydrates and dissolves completely.

If the water contains other compounds that compete with alginate for hydration, sodium alginate is more difficult to dissolve in the water.
