Xanthan Gum CAS 11138-66-2 Food Additive Grade Candidate from China
Buyer-facing sourcing candidate for xanthan gum CAS 11138-66-2 offered as an off-white to light-yellow free-flowing powder in 25 kg bags. Extracted data indicates food additive/stabilizer positioning with GB1886.41-2015 conformity claimed, 80 mesh pass 99.2%, 1% viscosity reported at 1355 mPa.s in KCl solution, pH 6.6, loss on drying 11.0%, lead, microbiological, yeast/mould, coliform, and Salmonella checks listed. RFQ should prioritize CAS confirmation, grade confirmation, current COA, food-contact/export documents, allergen/GMO status, batch traceability, and clarification of conflicting page data such as formula, frozen storage, and supplier’s main product focus.

Before matching
Documents to check
CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route
Packing notes
Listed transport package: 25 kg/bag
Listed specification: 25 kg/bag
Packaging material shown as paper; confirm whether inner PE liner is included for moisture protection
Request pallet configuration, net/gross weight, container loading quantity, and fumigation status for wooden pallets if used
Confirm label language, batch number, production date, expiry/retest date, and country-of-origin marking
Clarify storage statement because source page lists frozen storage, which is unusual for xanthan gum powder and may be a data-entry error
Applications and sourcing options
Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.
Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.
Use context
Common applications
Food thickening and stabilization where xanthan gum is permitted by local regulations
Hydrocolloid blending for viscosity control
Dry ingredient premixes requiring controlled mesh size and moisture
Export distribution of food additive grade xanthan gum with batch COA support
Formulation trials where viscosity, microbial profile, and heavy metal limits are key sourcing checks
How we compare
Sourcing options
25 kg bag trial order subject to sample approval and document review
Full-container or multi-pallet supply after specification lock and pre-shipment COA confirmation
Custom label or export packing request if supplier confirms capability
Alternative mesh or viscosity grade sourcing if standard 80 mesh material does not meet application needs
Third-party pre-shipment inspection or lab retest for heavy metals, microbiology, viscosity, and particle size
Human review
Compliance notes
Request current COA by batch before shipment and compare against agreed specification limits
Request TDS, SDS, food additive declaration, allergen statement, GMO statement, BSE/TSE statement if relevant, residual solvent or fermentation-origin declaration if required by buyer market
Certifications claimed on page include ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HACCP, and FDA; verify certificate holder name, scope, validity, and issuing body rather than relying on listing text
DG/export awareness: xanthan gum is generally shipped as a non-DG powder, but buyer should confirm SDS transport classification, HS code, and destination import requirements
Do not treat listing claims as regulatory approval for the buyer’s market; importer remains responsible for local food additive, labeling, and import compliance checks
Page claims conformity to GB1886.41-2015; confirm whether product also meets buyer-required FCC, E415, EU, USP/NF, or other target-market standards if needed
Verify heavy metals and microbiological limits against destination requirements, not only the supplier’s internal or China standard limits
Clarify manufacturer identity and production site because supplier page emphasizes gelatin and collagen lines, while this product is xanthan gum

Questions to confirm
Can you provide a recent batch COA for xanthan gum CAS 11138-66-2 matching the listed viscosity and microbiological specifications?
Is the offered material food additive grade, and which standard is guaranteed on the COA: GB1886.41-2015, FCC, E415, or another specification?
Please confirm the correct molecular/formula listing for xanthan gum, as the page formula appears inconsistent with xanthan gum.
Is the product manufactured by your own facility or traded from another xanthan gum producer? Please provide manufacturer name and site address for audit documentation.
What is the viscosity test method, including concentration, salt type/concentration, temperature, spindle/speed, and hydration time?
Can you confirm particle size options, such as 80 mesh or 200 mesh, and provide retained-on-sieve data?
What are the standard impurity controls for lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, residual ethanol/isopropanol if applicable, and microbiology?
Can you provide SDS, TDS, COA, allergen statement, GMO statement, food-grade declaration, and certificate copies before order confirmation?
