FOOD/PHARMA GRADE XANTHAN GUM
Food Grade Xanthan Gum can be widely used as salt/acid resistant thickener, high efficient suspension agent and emulsifier, high viscosity filling agent in various food, beverage, feedstuff and pet-food. It can not only enhance the performance of water-keeping and shape-keeping, but also improve the freeze/thaw stability and mouth-feeling of the products. Meanwhile, it can extend the shelf life of products.
Medicine, Cosmetics Grade xanthan gum
Medicine, Cosmetics grade xanthan gum can be used in liquid and cream pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, oral care products, detergents and lotion, can improve paste state, easy to filling and extrusion, improve product taste, inhibit product hierarchy, conducive to the spread of the product and absorbed.

Industrial Grade Xanthan gum
Xanthan gum can be applied to many industrial fields,such as oil drilling,pesticide,ceramic,printing & dyeing,painting,paper-making,mine-extraction and so on.
It is specially produced as mud additive for oli drilling, Being an environment friendly and high efficient mud additive,it has an excellent tolerance to a wide range of temperature,PH and alinity.It can extremely increase the mud penetraion rate and suspensionability to the drill cutting.Meanwhile,it can also reduce the pressure loss during drilling,stabilize the well-bore, prevent the damage to oil formation,and improve the efficiency of drilling, work-over and completion.
