Xanthan Gum

Natural gum derived as an excretion product from bacteriae (Xanthomas campestris), composed of pure natural polysaccharides (sugars) constituted of glucose, mannose & glucuronic acid. Purity >98 %, White powder, odorless. Soluble in water (use warm water to avoid lumps) I have found dissolving in a fatty oil or glycerin works better than water. 

Usage Rate: 0.5-2%.

Applications: Shampoos, conditioners, lotions, creams, body washes, shower gels.
