Xanthan Gum is a high molecular weight polysaccharide that appears as a white powder and is widely known for its exceptional thickening, stabilizing, and suspending properties in both food and industrial applications.
Industrially, Xanthan Gum is essential in oil drilling fluids, cosmetics, personal care, pharmaceutical formulations, and agrochemicals, where it improves flow properties, suspension stability, and texture. It thins under shear, which makes it particularly valuable in pumpable systems and sprays.
