Xanthan Gum (also known as Hansheng Gum) is a high-molecular polysaccharide produced by the fermentation of the wild Brassica juncea strain using starch as the raw material. It is a white to light beige powder that is soluble in water. The viscosity of its 1% aqueous solution is approximately 100 times that of the same concentration of gelatin solution, demonstrating a remarkable thickening effect. Xanthan Gum integrates multiple functions such as thickening, suspension, emulsification, and stability, and possesses excellent pseudoplasticity (shear thinning), outstanding thermal stability (-18°C to 130°C range stable performance), and extremely strong acid, alkali, and salt resistance (stable performance in the pH 2-12 range). It is recognized as the most superior biological gum in the world.
The application of xanthan gum
I. Food and Beverage Industry
Thickening and stabilizing agent: Xanthan gum is an ideal thickening and stabilizing agent for juices, dairy beverages, and plant protein beverages. The dosage ranges from 0.08% to 0.3%. It can prolong the suspension time of fruit pulp, prevent fat stratification and protein precipitation. It is also used in salad dressings, sauces, jams, bean pastes, and other products, overcoming the problem of traditional starch sedimentation and clumping, and improving the adhesion and coloring properties.
Baking and pastry improvement: Added to bread and cakes to make the pores uniform and elastic, which helps retain moisture and extend the shelf life; in noodles and frozen dumplings, it can reduce processing breaks and steaming soft skins, making the noodles more tender and smooth; during the frying of instant noodles, it can also reduce the oil absorption.
Improvement of frozen beverage quality: Applied to ice cream and ice lollies, it can control the growth of ice crystals, making the texture smooth and delicate, while enhancing the freeze-thaw stability of the product and preventing the separation of the liquid when melting.
Meat products' moisture retention enhancement: When added to meat products such as ham sausages and marinated meat, it improves water retention and tenderness, and enhances the taste.
Soy sauce and oyster sauce prevent sedimentation: Completely replacing traditional starch thickening agents, they overcome the problems of starch sedimentation and clumping in high-salt environments, extend the shelf life, and make the sauce body smooth and uniform.
Low-calorie food ingredients: Xanthan gum, as a water-soluble dietary fiber, is not degraded by human digestive enzymes and does not provide energy. It can provide a feeling of fullness and is used in weight-loss foods and low-calorie food formulations.
II. Petroleum and Industrial Sectors
Petroleum drilling mud additive: The petroleum industry is the largest application field for xanthan gum, accounting for approximately 55% of the demand. Petroleum-grade xanthan gum, as an environmentally friendly mud additive, has excellent tolerance to changes in temperature, pH, and salt content. It can enhance the suspension of fine solid materials, reduce drilling pressure loss, and at the same time, as a biological oil displacement agent, increase the oil recovery rate.
Personal care and household products: By leveraging the pseudo-plastic rheological properties, it is used in toothpaste to enhance the quality of the paste, in skin care products to provide stability and improve the skin sensation, and in detergents to improve the performance of the products.
Ceramics and Printing Industry: The suspension property of xanthan gum enables the uniform mixing of glazes, paints, and dyeing pastes without agglomeration, reducing product defects and improving processing techniques.
III. Medicine and Cosmetics
Drug formulation excipients: Xanthan gum is non-toxic, has good biocompatibility and is biodegradable. It is widely used as a matrix material for tablets and a base for sustained-release and controlled-release preparations, and is employed in the preparation of gastric floating preparations and colon-targeted drug delivery systems, etc. As a suspending agent, it can produce stable drugs with uniform drug dispersion.
Cosmetic rheology modifiers: As thickening agents and suspending agents in personal care products such as lotions, creams, and shampoos, they regulate the rheological properties of the products, improve the skin feel and stability. There are already specialized specification products on the market with high transparency, short sheen, and refreshing skin sensation.
