Key Properties and Specifications

This Xanthan Gum features a particle size of up to 200 mesh, high solids content (min. 91%), and an assay of 99%. It maintains a neutral taste and odorless quality, offering ease of incorporation into formulations. With a viscosity of 1200 cps (1% KCl solution), pH range of 6.0-8.0, and minimal loss on drying (15%), it meets stringent industry standards. Its water solubility and stability make it suitable for a broad spectrum of end-use applications.

Versatile Industrial and Commercial Applications

Widely used as a thickener and stabilizer, Xanthan Gum's reliable performance suits the needs of food additives, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, oil drilling, and textiles. It enhances texture and stability in food preparations, improves flow properties in drilling fluids, and acts as a suspending agent in cosmetic formulations. Its broad compatibility and safety profile make it a preferred choice for manufacturers worldwide.

FAQ's of Xanthan Gum:

Q: How should Xanthan Gum be stored to maintain its quality?

A: Xanthan Gum should be stored in a cool, dry place in its original, sealed 25 kg paper bags with inner plastic lining. Proper storage conditions will preserve its stability, effectiveness, and maintain its 2-year shelf life.

Q: What is the recommended process for dissolving Xanthan Gum in water?

A: To dissolve Xanthan Gum, slowly add it to cold or hot water while stirring to ensure even dispersion. Its excellent solubility and fine mesh size help it hydrate quickly, preventing clumping and forming a smooth, consistent solution.

Q: When is Xanthan Gum typically added during food or industrial processing?

A: In most processes, Xanthan Gum is incorporated at the mixing or blending stage, before heating or final mixing, to maximize its thickening and stabilizing properties. The timing ensures uniform distribution and optimal viscosity.

Q: Where can Xanthan Gum be applied across industries?

A: Xanthan Gum is used globally in food production (as a stabilizer and thickener), pharmaceuticals, cosmetics (for texture), textiles (to improve fabric quality), and oil drilling (to regulate fluid flow). Its broad application range makes it versatile for various sectors.

Q: What are the benefits of using Xanthan Gum with a 200 mesh particle size?

A: A 200 mesh particle size provides a finely divided powder that disperses more easily, hydrates faster, and produces smoother solutions or gels, improving the consistency and quality of end products.

Q: How does Xanthan Gum enhance product performance in formulations?

A: Xanthan Gum improves viscosity, stabilizes emulsions, suspends particulates, and enhances mouthfeel without affecting flavor, making it invaluable for food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications.
