Xanthan Gum (clear gel type, normal texture, 200 Mesh)
Cosmetics
Code: 2055
Xanthan gum is a thickener that can be used in almost every environment. Produced 100% naturally by the fermentation of sugar, sucrose or glucose, with the bacteria Xanthomonas campestris.
Clear gel type / normal texture (not suitable for use to create a single gel texture)
Ultra-fine 200 mesh powder
Xanthan Gum Xanthan Gum (plain clear gel) is an anionic viscosity increasing agent that can be used in almost every environment. Produced 100% naturally by the fermentation of sugar, sucrose or glucose, with the bacteria Xanthomonas campestris when mixed into the gel. It will make you have a clear gel texture. and the viscosity can be increased or decreased as desired. (By increasing or decreasing the ratio of using Xanthan Gum)
Usage: For adding viscosity (thickener) to gels, serums, creams, or lotions.
Mixing method: Mix in water (water-phase) by stirring or blending at high speed. Until it becomes a complete gel texture. If the formula contains oil or glycerin Mix it in oil (oil-phase) or glycerin first to make it easier to dissolve in water. Because it will spread better. (but not soluble in oil) and then mixed with water to dissolve and create a gel texture
Usage rate: 0.1-2% (according to desired viscosity, recommended 1%)
Product characteristics: White-light yellow powder
Solubility: Can dissolve in water Please see the mixing method above.
