XANTHAN GUM transparent

The anionic and long-chain polysaccharide is a fermentation product of pure cultures of micro-organisms. This is a cream coloured powder that forms transparent and pseudoplastic solutions. Its thermal stability guarantees the viscosity of XANTHAN GUM transparent in a wide temperature range, while its pH‑resistance is what makes XANTHAN GUM transparent easily soluble in water, bases and acids. In addition, it can be easily processed with mineral salts, alcohol and surfactants and generally offers a wide range of applications.

In practise, XANTHAN GUM transparent is an excellent gel former and consistency enhancer. It is an essential raw material for emulsions with high water content. It is ideal for stabilizing hot-stirred and cold-stirred emulsions such as lotions and creams. At the same time, it can reduce the concentration of emulsifiers. The stability remains unaltered over a wide pH-range. Its skin-friendly property makes it ideal as a thickener in shampoos and shower gels. Moreover, it has a good foam stabilising effect even in shaving foams and other cosmetic foam products. The processing in suspensions with pigments or abrasives can be used equally well in make-up products or face masks. Its special feature is to form high-viscosity pseudoplastic mixtures and this helps in hygienic product packaging such as tubes or dispenser bottles. Cosmetic products formulated with XANTHAN GUM transparent give you a soft and pleasurable feel to the skin.
