Xanthan Gum Thickener

Viscosity Selection

Available Xanthan Gum can be supplied at a viscosity above 1200 cP, with 1480 cP recorded under the 1% KCl test condition. Buyers can specify the required viscosity range when requesting a quotation.

Mesh Options

Available particle sizes include 80, 120 and 200 Mesh. The required mesh can be selected according to the buyer's mixing process and powder handling requirements.

Order Specification

For repeat orders, the selected viscosity, mesh and test conditions can be included in the purchase specification to keep the supply consistent.

Thickening

Xanthan Gum increases viscosity in water-based formulations, helping control the flow and consistency of sauces, beverages and other liquid foods.

Suspension

The increased viscosity helps keep spices, fruit solids and other insoluble particles dispersed in liquid formulations.

Emulsion Stabilization

Xanthan Gum helps reduce oil-water separation by increasing the viscosity of the continuous phase. It functions as a stabilizing thickener rather than an emulsifier.

Sauces & Salad Dressings

A common option for sauces, dressings and seasonings with a thicker liquid base and suspended spices.

Fruit & Protein Beverages

Suitable for fruit juice and protein drinks containing fruit solids or protein components.

Bakery & Gluten-Free Foods

Used in gluten-free bread, biscuits and similar products to support dough binding and product structure.

Frozen Foods

Applied to selected frozen food formulations to help retain the intended texture during storage.

Physical & Chemical Verification

Appearance, particle size, loss on drying, pH, viscosity, shearing ratio and ash are checked against the applicable product requirements.

Contaminant Control

Testing covers total heavy metals, arsenic and lead, with limits defined for food-grade supply.

Microbiological Control

Microbiological checks include total plate count, moulds and yeasts, Staphylococcus, Salmonella and E. Coliform.

Batch Documentation

Batch test results can be documented for buyer quality review and shipment approval when required.

Standard Packaging

25 kg kraft paper bags with food-grade polyethylene inner bags are commonly used for bulk supply.

Moisture Protection

Keep the bags sealed during storage and transport. Xanthan Gum should be protected from moisture, heat and contamination.

Palletized Shipping

Bulk orders can be palletized for container loading and international transportation, with the packing method matched to the shipment requirements.
