[Alt text] Graph that plots Temperature (°C) on the x-axis and Viscosity (cps) on the y-axis. The line is nearly horizontal, demonstrating that the viscosity stays close to 1000 cps over the temperature range of 0–100°C. The graph is in front of a grey ombre background with a condensation effect and opacity.

What’s the solution for temperature headaches? KELZAN, Kelco’s xanthan gum.
Now you can sit back and relax when you ship your product. Whether it goes North or South – where things can get a little too cold or hot – KELZAN keeps things from falling apart. It maintains constant viscosity from freezing to 170 degrees F., so there’s no separation at all across this wide temperature range even during processing. The above curve shows the viscosities of a 1% KELZAN solution at various temperatures. The small change that does occur is reversible. This independence of viscosity with relation to temperature is unique and provides numerous advantages. For instance, solutions made cold and used hot are relatively unchanged. Also products marketed under various climatic conditions are free of changes in consistency. What’s more, KELZAN is stable across practically the entire pH range and its pseudoplastic rheology makes it ideal for any water based system that benefits from stop-go flow characteristics. KELZAN’s properties are so unique that it is able to perform beyond the limits of other commercially available hydrophilic colloids. If you’d like to see the improvement KELZAN can make in your product, contact your nearest office and we’ll send you everything you need, including samples.
