Thickener & Stabilizer: Xanthan Gum widely used to increase viscosity and prevent separation in dressings, sauces, gravies, and soups.
Emulsifier: Helps create stable emulsions, particularly in low-fat or fat-free products like salad dressings.
Suspension Agent: Keeps solid particles suspended evenly in liquids, preventing settling in beverages, fruit pulps, and spice mixtures.
Texturizer: Provides a smooth, creamy mouthfeel and improves the texture of dairy products, ice cream, and gluten-free baked goods.
Foam Stabilizer: Enhances the stability of foams and aerated products like meringues and whipped toppings.
Thickener & Suspending Agent: Used in liquid medications, gels, and lotions to achieve desired consistency and keep active ingredients suspended.
Binder & Disintegrant: Can function as a binder in tablets and, in some formulations, aid in tablet disintegration.
Stabilizer: Helps stabilize emulsions and suspensions in topical creams, toothpastes, and cosmetics, ensuring product integrity.
Rheology Modifier: Utilized in drilling fluids, paints, coatings, and adhesives to control viscosity and flow properties.
Suspension Agent: Keeps abrasive particles suspended in polishing compounds and industrial cleaners.
Friction Reducer: Can be used in some industrial processes to reduce friction.
