Is this suitable as thickening agent for milk drinks?

Not really. You’d be better off using corn or tapioca starch.

what is the difference between Kappa and Iota. I wish to use the product in an art activity, marbling, so which would be best. Thanks

There are many difference's between Kappa and Iota. The main difference is Iota makes soft gels and kappa makes firmer gels. Please read both product descriptions for all the differences. Most people use Iota for marbling but some do use Kappa.
