Xanthan Gum
Classification : Xanthan Gum
PRODUCT DETAILS

Xanthan gum is a natural high-molecular-weight polysaccharide obtained by fermenting glucose or sucrose using Xanthomonas campestris. It possesses excellent thickening, stability, suspending, and emulsifying properties. It dissolves rapidly in water to form a high-viscosity solution, making it a highly efficient and widely used natural biocolloid.
Packaged in 25kg waterproof and moisture-proof bags, custom packaging is available.

Product Application

Main Application Areas
1. Food Industry (Main Application)
Used as a thickener, stabilizer, emulsifier, and suspending agent to improve the texture, rheology, and water retention of food. Applications include: beverages, jams, condiments (such as salad dressing and ketchup), baked goods, frozen foods, and ice cream, improving texture stability and preventing stratification and sedimentation.
2. Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics
Used as a tablet binder, emulsion stabilizer, and suspending agent in pharmaceuticals. Used as a thickener and moisturizing ingredient in cosmetics to improve product stability and user experience (commonly found in lotions, face masks, and shampoos).
3. Oil Drilling and Production
Used as a thickener in drilling fluids and fracturing fluids to improve the suspension and proppant-carrying capacity of liquids, maintaining good rheological properties even in high-temperature and high-salt environments.
4. Industrial Applications
Used as a thickener and stabilizer in coatings, ceramics, papermaking, and textile sizing to improve system dispersibility and workability.
