Xanthan Gum is widely used in food processing, oil drilling, pesticides, seeds, coatings, feed, daily chemicals, textile printing and dyeing, papermaking, tobacco, foundry, fire protection and many other industries. Xanthan Gum is a stabilizer and stabilizer for food, non-food and cosmetics. Emulsifier.

1. In the food processing industry, xanthan gum is superior to current food additives such as gelatin, CMC, seaweed gum and pectin:
Xanthan gum can be used as stabilizer; thickener; emulsifier; suspending agent; foam enhancer.

Xanthan gum can be used in noodles, pastries, biscuits, shortening, instant coffee, fish products, ice cream, popsicles, ice cream; bread, jelly, dairy products, meat products, jams, colorful sauces, and beverages.

A strong gel can be obtained by mixing xanthan gum and guar gum at a ratio of 2:1.

2. In oil industry drilling:
0.5% xanthan gum aqueous solution can maintain the viscosity of water-based drilling fluid and control its rheological properties, making the viscosity of the high-speed rotating drill bit extremely small, greatly saving power consumption;

However, it maintains high viscosity in relatively stationary drilling parts, which prevents the well wall from collapsing and facilitates cutting of gravel and discharging it out of the well.

3. In cosmetics:
Xanthan gum is used as a stabilizer and emulsifier in cosmetics.
