Xanthum Gum/CMC

Xanthan Gum and Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) are high-performance polysaccharide-based additives widely used as rheology modifiers and stabilizers.

Xanthan Gum:

Xanthan Gum is a natural gum produced by the fermentation of sugar by Xanthomonas campestris bacteria. It is:

• Highly effective at low concentrations
• Stable across a wide pH range and temperature variations
• Ideal for thickening and suspending solids in liquids
• Used in food (sauces, dressings), cosmetics (gels, creams), and industrial fluids (paints, drilling fluids)

CMC (Carboxymethyl Cellulose):

CMC is a water-soluble cellulose derivative known for:

• Excellent film-forming and thickening capabilities
• Improved moisture retention and stabilization
• Compatibility with salts and surfactants
• Applications in food (ice creams, bakery), personal care (toothpaste, lotions), and industrial use (textiles, paper, adhesives)
