Xanthan Gum (CAS 11138-66-2) is a natural polysaccharide thickener produced by fermentation. Its stand-out feature is instant cold-water thickening — no heat, no complex dispersion equipment — which makes it a clean-label essential from lotions to sauces.
Cosmetics & Personal Care
- Creams, lotions and gels: stabilizes emulsions and builds elegant viscosity at 0.1%–1.0%.
- Masks and serums: suspends actives and improves texture.
- Toothpaste, cleansers and shampoos: structure and suspension for particles and beads.
Food & Other Industries
- Sauces, dressings and dairy: provides body, freeze-thaw stability and emulsion stabilization.
- Gluten-free baking: improves structure and moisture retention.
- Pharmaceutical suspensions and gels: reliable thickening and suspending performance.
Why It Performs
Xanthan is anionic, pH-tolerant and salt-tolerant, so it holds viscosity even in electrolyte-heavy systems where many thickeners fail. High efficiency at low use levels keeps formulas economical.
