Industrial Grade Xanthan Gum, Pro-XTG IN

Pro-XTG IN functions as a hydrophilic colloid to thicken, suspend and stabilize water-based pesticide formulations like suspension concentration (SC) and concentrated emulsion (EW).

Outstanding Merits

With very low concentration, Pro-XTG IN gives high viscosity while keeps extreme pseudoplasticity, or shear thinning.
Outstanding stability with respect to pH, salt and heat.
Excellent compatibility even synergistic effect with other thickener and suspending agent like magnesium aluminum silicate or additives like smectite clay.
Because of its high molecular weight, Pro-XTG IN also can be part of anti-drift agent.
