More information about Keltrol CG RD
- Transparent solutions
- Has pseudoplastic rheology profile (e.g. is shear thinning)
- Shows relatively little viscosity change over a wide temperature range
- Stable over a wide pH range
- Compatible with high concentrations of salts and surfactants
- Stable to high-shear processes
- Exhibits delayed hydration relative to standard 80-mesh grades of xanthan gum due to its larger particle size
- Can hydrate fully in hot or cold water, even in systems with minimal agitation
- Contains little-to-no dust
- Ideal for use in formulations where high clarity is desired
- Enhances the stability of emulsions, suspensions and foams
- Controls flow during and after application to the skin
- Provides a light, silky skin-feel
- Thins during processing, then quickly recovers its viscosity
- Disperses in the aqueous phase of formulations without use of dispersants
- Can be used in systems where high-shear mixing is not available or would damage the end product
- Facilitates mixing and pumping during formulation preparation by delaying viscosity development, while still achieving full functionality prior to packaging
- Reduces dust exposure, which minimizes industrial hygiene issues, slipping hazards, and improves general housekeeping
- Kosher and Halal approved
