Description: white to light yellow powder
Purpose: thickening agent
Overview: formula (C35H49O29) n, also called Huang Jiao, han raw rubber, is a kind of natural polysaccharide and important biological polymer, by black rot of wild cabbage, rape yellow to bacterium carbs as the main raw material, produced by aerobic fermentation biological engineering technology. Pale yellow to light brown powder, slightly smelly, soluble in hot and cold water, the solution is neutral, meet water dispersion, emulsion into a stable hydrophilic viscous gel.
Xanthan gum can be dissolved in cold water and hot water, high viscosity, high acid, alkali, salt properties, high thermal stability, suspension property, thixotropy, etc., and is often used as thickening agent, emulsifier, suspending agent, stabilizing agent, has a broad market prospect, and is widely applied in daily chemical, food, medicine, oil, printing and dyeing, textile, ceramics and other fields.
Xanthan gum is known as "industrial monosodium glutamate", is the world's largest production is extremely versatile microbial polysaccharides.
