Basic information
As a food additive, xanthan gum has been accepted by many countries. It can significantly improve food quality, taste, appearance quality, improve the commercial value, has been used in drinks, cakes, jelly, canned food, seafood, meat processing and become important in areas such as stabilizing agent, suspending agent, emulsifier, thickener, binder and processing raw materials, has the characteristics of high added value and high quality.

Application:
1. Xanthan gum is widely used in food-making as Thickeners, Emulsifiers.
2. It can also be used in detergent, papermaking, oil-drilling, textile, dyeing, ceramics, construction, paint, welding, battery, tobacco, toothpaste, etc.
