Chemical Engineering and Process
Xanthan Gum is a high molecular weight polysaccharide produced by fermentation of a carbohydrate with Xanthomonas campestris. It is soluble in cold or hot water, but not soluble in organic solvent. It can be used as a thickener or a stabilizer and reheology control agent for food, pharmaceutical, toothpaste, especially at cosmetic and oil drilling applications widely.
