Main features of Xanthan Gum are:

1. Compared with other polyoses solutions, even low concentration of Xathan Gum solution shows high viscosity.
2. Xathan Gum is poisonless and odorless, so it is an excellent additive for food, detergents and cosmetics.
3. The high pseudoplasticity (rheological property) of Xathan Gum solution can give the food a chewy texture and unique taste. It is also widely used in oil drilling and exploitation.
4. Xathan Gum is soluble in acid, alkali, salt and sugar solutions, and maintains stable properties. So it is used extensively.
5. Xathan Gum maintains good thermal performance. It can keep its unique functions in a wide temperature range. It is a good auxiliary material for products including beverages, meat and baked or toasted food. Its thermal stability makes it a reliable regulator for tertiary tapping in petroleum industry.
6. The stable double spiral structure of Xathan Gum determines its extremely high anti-oxidization and antienzymolysis property.
7. Xathan Gum is extensively compatible. It shows good coordination effects and improves viscosity when mixed with cluster bean gum, carob gum or alginate. It generates gel of different toughness when used with natural gums.
8. Xathan Gum has a good suspension property with insoluble solids and oil drops.
