Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide derived from the fermentation of glucose, sucrose, or lactose. It is used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in a variety of surfactants, including shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and creams. It is also used in food products, such as salad dressings, sauces, and gravies. Xanthan gum is a popular choice for surfactants due to its ability to increase viscosity, improve stability, and reduce surface tension. It is also used to improve the texture and shelf life of products. Additionally, it is non-toxic and biodegradable, making it an environmentally friendly choice. Xanthan gum is widely used in the surfactant industry, and is available from a variety of suppliers. Some of the major companies in the market include CP Kelco, Ashland, Dow, and BASF.
