In modern food manufacturing, achieving consistent texture, stability and processing performance is essential. While native tapioca starch is widely used for its thickening and textural properties, some food applications require enhanced functionality to withstand demanding processing conditions.

Modified Tapioca Starch (Texiva StructPro S120) is a food-grade functional starch developed to provide improved processing stability, water management and texture performance across a variety of food formulations.

As a modified tapioca starch, Texiva StructPro S120 can help food manufacturers achieve better control over product structure while supporting consistent quality during processing and storage.

Xanthan Gum in Food Applications: Which Food Grade Xanthan Gum is Right for Your Application? 

Understanding Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum is one of the most widely used hydrocolloids in the food industry due to its excellent thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying properties. Produced through the fermentation of corn starch and bean protein by Xanthomonas campestris, xanthan gum forms neutral solutions that are highly compatible with a wide range of food formulations.

Even at low dosage levels, xanthan gum helps improve product texture, maintain ingredient suspension, enhance mouthfeel, and extend product stability throughout shelf life.
 

---

Why is Xanthan Gum Used in Food?

Food manufacturers incorporate xanthan gum into formulations because it offers several functional benefits:

• Provides excellent thickening performance at low concentrations
• Stabilizes emulsions and suspensions
• Prevents ingredient separation during storage
• Improves texture and mouthfeel
• Suitable for both powder blends and liquid food products

These properties make xanthan gum an essential ingredient in beverages, sauces, dressings, instant mixes, dairy products, and many other food applications.

Two Grades for Different Processing Needs

Although both Xanthan Gum F200 and Xanthan Gum F80 provide a viscosity range of 1,200–1,600 cPs, their different particle sizes make each grade more suitable for specific applications.
 

Xanthan Gum F200 (200 Mesh)		Xanthan Gum F80 (80 Mesh)
Fine particle size for rapid dispersion Xanthan Gum F200 features a finer 200-mesh particle size that disperses more quickly in dry blends. This characteristic helps improve mixing uniformity and reduces the likelihood of lump formation during reconstitution. Characteristics: Fine 200-mesh particle size Viscosity: 1,200–1,600 cPs   Recommended applications include: Instant beverage powders Instant soup mixes Seasoning powders Dessert premixes		Optimized for ready-to-drink liquid applications Xanthan Gum F80 has a coarser 80-mesh particle size, making it well suited for liquid processing systems where controlled hydration is desired during mixing.   It provides reliable viscosity development while helping suspend particles and improve product stability in beverages and other liquid foods. Characteristics: 80-mesh particle size Viscosity: 1,200–1,600 cPs Recommended applications include: Ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages Fruit beverages Dairy drinks Sauces
