In modern personal care formulations, achieving high optical clarity while maintaining absolute structural stability is a key challenge. Traditional rheological modifiers often introduce turbidity, micro-impurities, or a sticky skin feel. Suzhou Yuantairun Chemical Co., Ltd. addresses these formulation issues with our high-transparency Cosmetic Grade Xanthan Gum (CAS No. 11138-66-2), a bio-fermented polysaccharide engineered for premium cosmetics.
Cosmetic Grade Xanthan Gum is manufactured via the aerobic fermentation of carbohydrates using pure strains of the gram-negative bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. The native extracellular polymer consists of a cellulose-like backbone of β-(1→4)-d-glucan with trisaccharide side chains of d-mannose, d-glucuronic acid, and a second d-mannose. The presence of acetyl and pyruvyl substituents on the side chains imparts a strongly anionic character and controls its behavior in solution.
The Transparency Breakthrough: Conventional xanthan gum contains residual bacterial cell debris, proteins, and insoluble components that cause light scattering, resulting in a cloudy dispersion. Our high-transparency grade undergoes a proprietary multi-stage enzymatic digestion and micro-filtration process. This achieves over 92% light transmittance (1% aqueous solution at 600nm), making it suitable for clear face gels, transparent serums, and premium hair care systems.
Cosmetic formulations rely heavily on shear-thinning (pseudoplastic) properties. Xanthan Gum exhibits a high yield stress at rest, meaning it can suspend insoluble materials—such as exfoliating beads, glitter, silicones, and physical sunscreen particles (zinc oxide/titanium dioxide)—indefinitely without separation. Under shear (such as pumping or rubbing on the skin), the ordered helical structures align with the flow, causing viscosity to drop instantly for smooth application and a clean, non-greasy finish.
| Parameters & Specifications | Cosmetic Grade Standard | High Transparency Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Clarity (1% Solution, 600nm) | > 75% | > 92% (Typically > 95%) |
| Viscosity (1% in 1% KCl, 25°C) | 1,200 - 1,600 mPa·s | 1,300 - 1,700 mPa·s |
| pH Range (1% Solution) | 6.0 - 8.0 | 5.5 - 8.0 |
| Loss on Drying | ≤ 13% | ≤ 10% |
| Total Aerobic Plate Count | ≤ 500 CFU/g | ≤ 100 CFU/g (Pathogen Free) |
The global cosmetic industry is shifting rapidly toward clean beauty, biodegradable ingredients, and natural rheological agents. Traditional synthetic thickeners, such as cross-linked polyacrylic acid (Carbomers), are facing scrutiny due to microplastic concerns, poor electrolyte compatibility, and dependency on petroleum feedstocks. In contrast, bio-derived polymers like high transparency Xanthan Gum are becoming the preferred sustainable alternative.
Global procurement teams prioritize raw materials that offer batch-to-batch consistency, fast cold-water dispersion, and certification compliance (COSMOS, ECOCERT, HALAL, and KOSHER).
