The Xanthan gum family provides versatile performance for a range of consumer products. These solutions are pseudoplastic. Xanthan gum has outstanding stability to pH, salt and/or heat and excellent compatibility with other ingredients.
The grades are specifically designed for use as hydrophilic colloids to thicken and stabilize emulsions, foams and suspensions. Unique combinations of properties allow CP Kelco Xanthan gum products to perform beyond the limits of many other commercially available hydrocolloids.
