CAS No.: 11138-66-2Xanthan gum powder / polysaccharide thickener and rheology modifierCandidate for RFQ with grade and document verification
Mesh: 80-200 mesh stated; confirm required particle size distribution
Shelf life: 24 months stated; confirm production date and retest policy
Packing specification stated: 25 kg bag or 25 kg drum
Main active ingredient: xanthan gum
Formula listed by source as C8H14Cl2N2O2 appears inconsistent for xanthan gum and should be corrected or clarified before purchase
Performance checks may include viscosity, moisture, ash, pH, particle size, and pyruvate-related indicators depending on application

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
Common packing stated: 25 kg paper bag or 25 kg drum; confirm inner liner, palletization, and container loading quantity
For humid destinations, request moisture-resistant packaging details and desiccant or liner options if needed
Confirm whether neutral packing, buyer label, or export carton marking is available
Ask supplier for batch number, manufacturing date, shelf-life marking, and COA matching each lot
For LCL shipments, confirm protection against odor contamination and moisture ingress
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 applications where local food regulations permit and food-grade documentation is verified
Beverage, sauce, bakery filling, dairy, frozen food, and condiment formulations subject to buyer-side validation
Industrial viscosity control where food-grade compliance is not required
Oil drilling fluid applications requiring drilling-grade viscosity and performance testing
Distributor stock supply where batch COA, shelf life, and packing consistency are key purchase checks
How we compare
Sourcing options
Food-grade xanthan gum powder with full food compliance document package
Industrial-grade xanthan gum powder for non-food viscosity applications
Oil drilling-grade xanthan gum powder with drilling-fluid performance specifications
80 mesh, 100 mesh, or 200 mesh particle size options subject to supplier confirmation
25 kg bag, 25 kg drum, palletized export packing, or buyer-label packing subject to MOQ
Human review
Compliance notes
Request current COA, SDS/MSDS, TDS, allergen statement, non-GMO statement if required, and food-grade compliance documents for edible applications
CAS number 11138-66-2 should be verified against all supplier documents, labels, and customs paperwork
Grade claims should be matched to the destination market and end-use requirements; food-grade and oil drilling-grade specifications should not be treated as interchangeable
Confirm microbiological limits, heavy metals, lead/arsenic limits, and residual solvents or contaminants where food use is intended
Verify HS code, export documentation, certificate of origin, and any destination-specific import requirements before shipment
Xanthan gum is generally not a dangerous good in many trade contexts, but DG status, SDS transport section, and carrier acceptance should still be checked for the exact supplied product
No regulatory approval or import clearance should be assumed from supplier listing text alone
