Use:
Xanthan gum food grade can be widely used as salt/acid resistant thickener, high efficient suspension agent and emulsifier, high viscosity filling agent in various food and beverang. It can not only enhance the performance of water-keeping and shape-keeping, but also improve the freeze/thaw stability and mouth-feeling of food and beverage products. What is more, Xanthan Gum can extend the shelf life of products, simplify the filling and sterilization during the course of production.
