Product Description

Xanthan Gum CAS 11138-66-2

Xanthan gum, also known as Hansen's gum, is a widely used microbial extracellular polysaccharide produced by Xanthomonas campestris with carbohydrates as the main raw material through fermentation engineering. It boasts unique rheology, good water solubility, stability to heat, acid and alkali, and excellent compatibility with a variety of salts.

As a versatile ingredient, Xanthan Gum functions as a thickener, suspending agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer. Its broad applicability spans across more than 20 industries, including food, petroleum, and medicine, making it the world's largest production scale and extremely wide range of microbial polysaccharides.
