Xanthan Gum
Synonyms: Xanthan; Gum Xanthan
CAS NO: 11138-66-2
Property:
Off-white or Light beige powder, tasteless, odorless, non-toxic and safe to eat. Soluble in water, insoluble in most organic solvents.
Xanthan gum is starch by Xanthomonas Campestris after fermentation to generate the high molecular weight of anionic polysaccharide polymer, has high stability, acid and alkali resistance, high salt environment, resistance to high temperature, low temperature freezing, resistance to biodegradation, strong ability to resist pollution.
Its water solution is not sensitive to temperature, pH and electrolyte concentration, so it is very stable for cold, heat, oxidant, acid, alkali and various enzymes. It can be compatible with many substances (acid, alkali, salt, surfactant and other water-soluble colloid), with satisfactory compatibility.
Product Grade and Application:
Its applications cover a broad spectrum and range from the food industry to oil drilling. As a rheology control agent in aqueous systems and as a stabilizer for emulsions and suspensions, it is used in food, pet food, Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic, industrial, oil drilling, etc.
According to the different applications, Xanthan gum have Food Grade, Cosmetic Grade, Oilfield Grade and Industry Grade.
Grade | Type | Product Application |
Food Grade | F80 | Versatile xanthan gum, have excellent stability of emulsion, and provides excellent stability for seasoning, sauces, dairy products and beverages. |
F200 | High mesh product, it can rapidly hydration, suitable for dry mixture and batter. | |
RD | It is a pre-hydration xanthan gum, which can be rapidly dispersed in the water without long stirring. | |
Cosmetic Grade | RM | Pharmaceutical grade xanthan gum. It is applicable to non-food products such as cosmetics, or to provide good suspension and stable emulsion. |
TP80 | It is a non-cellulase xanthan gum, extremely suitable for toothpaste products. | |
Oilfield Grade | - | As an efficient and environmentally friendly mud additive, its viscosity, thickening, salt resistance, pollution resistance are higher than the other polymers, especially in the well drilling of sea, beach, high halide layer and permafrost layer have the effect significantly. It can be used for oilfield workover, well completion, underreaming and horizontal drilling fluid. |
Industry Grade | - | Applicable to non-food products such as coatings, coatings, textiles and dyes. It is a kind of multipurpose thickener and rheological control agent, which is highly dispersed in aqueous solution. |
