Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum is widely used in the food & beverage industry as a thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying agent in products like sauces, dressings, and gluten-free baked goods. In industries such as paint & coatings, oil & gas, plastic & rubber, and construction, it serves as a rheology modifier, improving the texture and flow properties of products like paints and drilling fluids. In personal care, health & beauty, and pharmaceutical products, xanthan gum is used to enhance product consistency and stability in lotions, shampoos, creams, and medications. Additionally, in cleaning and sanitation and animal feed & animal care, xanthan gum helps improve the viscosity and texture of cleaning agents and aids in the delivery of nutrients in feed formulations.

Key Benefits and Uses of Xanthan Gum:

• Superior Thickening Power
  Delivers high viscosity at low concentrations, ideal for sauces, creams, gels, and drilling fluids.

• Emulsion and Suspension Stability
  Prevents ingredient separation over time, especially in oil-in-water systems and suspensions.

• Rheology Control (Shear-Thinning)
  Allows products to flow under pressure (pumping, brushing, spraying) but remain thick at rest—ideal for paints, gels, and cleaning agents.

• Broad Compatibility
  Effective across wide pH ranges (2–12) and tolerant to heat, salts, and freeze/thaw cycles.

• Clean-Label Ingredient
  Recognized as a natural additive in food applications, especially valued in gluten-free and vegan formulations.

Common Applications Include:

• Salad dressings, sauces, dairy alternatives

• Paints, cement slurries, and oil drilling fluids

• Lotions, gels, shampoos, toothpaste

• Liquid pharmaceuticals and controlled-release formulations

• Animal feed additives and pet shampoos

• Eco-friendly household and industrial cleaners
