Description: This white, chalk-like, naturally derived polysaccharide is produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates sourced from corn, wheat, or milk. It is widely used across personal care, cosmetic, and food applications for its excellent thickening and stabilizing properties. The ingredient acts as a powerful viscosity enhancer and binding agent, improving texture, consistency, and overall formulation stability.
Solubility: • Soluble in water and ethanol • Insoluble in oil
Usage Rate: 0.5% – 2%
Recommended pH Range: 5.5 – 10
Applications: • Serums and creams as a natural skin-conditioning thickener • Stabilizing emulsions to prevent oil–water separation • Increasing viscosity in gels, lotions, and cosmetic formulations • Food products where controlled thickness and stability are required
Function: • Acts as a gelling agent • Works as a viscosity enhancer • Stabilizes formulations by suspending solids • Improves texture, consistency, and shelf life
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly closed.
