Food Thickeners Xanthan Gum Ep USP F80 &F200 Mesh

Xanthan Gum is a high-performance biopolysaccharide produced by the fermentation of carbohydrates (e.g., corn starch) with Xanthomonas campestris bacteria. It is available in two main grades-Food Grade and Industrial/Oilfield Grade-each tailored to meet the specific requirements of different application scenarios, while sharing core advantages of excellent viscosity, stability, and compatibility.

1. Food Grade Xanthan Gum (E415)
Food Grade Xanthan Gum is a white to cream-colored, odorless, and tasteless free-flowing powder. As a top-tier food additive, it serves as an excellent thickener, stabilizer, suspending agent, and emulsifier, with exceptional pseudoplastic rheology. It features excellent solubility in both cold and hot water, outstanding thermal stability, acid/alkali resistance, and superior compatibility with salts. It is non-toxic, approved by FDA and EFSA, and available with Halal & Kosher certification, making it safe for wide use in food and related industries.
2. Industrial Grade Xanthan Gum
Industrial Grade Xanthan Gum is a high-purity biopolymer designed for demanding non-food applications, presenting as light beige free-flowing powder. It provides exceptional rheological control, high viscosity, and excellent stability in harsh environments such as high salinity, high temperature, and high shear. As a professional viscosifier, suspending agent, and fluid loss control agent, it is widely used in industrial processes and oilfield operations, with the advantages of being biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
