Xanthan gum

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
It is a high molecular weight polysaccharide with good solubility in water. It is produced by fermentation of carbonhydrate with Xanthomonas campestris. Xanthan gum is ionic polysaccharide, but it has a strong salt Capacity.

Application
1. It can be used as thickener in hydraulic fracturing. Xanthan gum has good adsorption with guar gum, so it can increase the viscosity of guar gum with difference ratio blend.
2. It is also can be as a mud additive for oil drilling and exploitation. It is an environment-friendly and highly efficient mud additive with excellent tolerance to the changes of temperature, acid, alkaline and salt. It can extremely increase the mud’s penetrating ability and suspending performance to small solid materials, decrease the pressure loss during drilling operation, stabilize the sidewall and decrease the damage to oil bearing reservoir.
