Description

Sosa xanthan gum is a highly versatile thickener, emulsifier and stabiliser, soluble both hot and cold. Its viscosity remains stable regardless of temperature or pH, even in very acidic conditions. It is compatible with salty and alcoholic liquids, which allows its use in a wide variety of preparations. It has a pseudoplastic behavior, remaining viscous at rest and fluid under agitation, ideal for products such as ketchup. It resists freezing and thawing processes well without losing its properties, and is effective in preventing syneresis (water loss) in gels. Sosa xanthan gum is also thermo-reversible, which means that it maintains its consistency after being heated or frozen.

Mode of Use: Dissolve xanthan gum in any liquid with a water content higher than 80%. It can be mixed either cold or hot, using a blender to ensure uniform dispersion.
