VANZAN® NF-C
VANZAN® NF-C Xanthan Gum produces clear xanthan gum solutions for applications where clarity is essential. VANZAN NF-C is widely used as a rheology control agent for aqueous systems. It increases viscosity and prevents the settling of solids in a wide variety of personal care applications.
The rheology of VANZAN NF-C solutions is remarkably stable over a broad temperature range and will not change significantly between ambient temperature and 60°C. Additionally, VANZAN NF-C has excellent freeze/thaw stability. VANZAN NF-C is recommended for use in both acidic and alkaline systems and will retain nearly constant viscosity between pH 2 and pH 12. Mixtures of xanthan gum with water-swellable clays or certain galactomannans produce synergistic rheological effects. The mixtures will provide greater thickening, stabilizing and suspending properties than those developed by the individual components of the mixture.
VANZAN NF-C finds applications in products such as dentifrice gels, shampoos, styling gels, liquid soaps, and body gels where clarity is essential.
VANZAN NF-C is authorized by ECOCERT Greenlife™ as complying with the ECOCERT and COSMOS™ standards for ecological and organic skin care products and cosmetics. VANZAN NF-C is also NATRUE Approved and registered with the Vegan Society.
