CP Kelco is the innovation leader in the production of polysaccharides by microbial fermentation, extraction from land and sea plants, and modification of cellulose-based raw materials CP Kelcos goal is to be the preferred partner for providing innovative products and solutions through the use of nature-based chemistry. Our products are derived from natural, renewable raw materials, and CP Kelco strives to provide these products with minimal processing or modification. These products serve many functions, including suspension, stabilization, film forming, unique spray patterns, and gelation, as well as providing a range of sensory and texture attributes. Given this leadership position, CP Kelco has evolved into more than just an ingredient supplier. We pride ourselves on how, with a combination of a vast product portfolio and our application expertise, we provide solutions to the most creative and difficult product design challenges. CP Kelco understands how to consider manufacturing needs and consumer desires when selecting the most appropriate product from our extensive portfolio. Many factors must be taken into consideration, including desired flow behavior or texture, required shelf-life, production equipment available, compatibility with other ingredients and regulatory compliance. Rheology is defined as the study of the flow of matter: primarily liquid state, but also as soft solids or solids under conditions in which they respond with plastic flow rather than deforming elasticity in response to an applied force. Within the consumer products industry, rheology control is vital. However, selecting the most appropriate rheology modifier from the wide range commercially available is far from straightforward. Many factors must be taken into consideration, including the desired flow behavior or texture, the required shelf-life, the production equipment available, compatibility with other ingredients, regulatory compliance and environmental friendliness. Designed to offer solutions across the consumer products spectrum, CP Kelcos vast ingredient choices enable the most challenging - and creative household and personal care concepts to become consumer products. Whether its suspending botanicals in the latest new-age bodywash, manipulating gel textures in air fresheners, improving the sprayability of tanning products, or creating cleaners from bio-based materials, CP Kelco offers a portfolio of products and application expertise to suit the needs of consumer products manufacturers worldwide.

A Little About Our Chemistries

Shear Rate: the rate or speed of fluid movement.

Rheological Terms Shear Stress: the amount of force/presure that is applied to a sample in order to cause movement at some rate. Viscosity: the relationship of shear rate to the shear stress applied. Newtonian rheology: at a given temperature, the viscosity measured is constant as the shear rate vaires (examples are water and thin motor oil). Newtonian fluids in rality are not very common. Most fluids are Non-Newtonian; i.e. as the shear rate varies, the shear stress does not vary proprotionally. Pseudoplastic rheology: viscosity decreases as shear rate increases (shear-thinning). Thixotropic rheology: rheology decreases over a measurable period of time as shear rate increases (time-dependent shear-thinning). Our products are derived from natural, renewable raw materials, and CP Kelco strives to provide these products with minimal processing or modification. These products serve many functions, including suspension, stabilization, film forming, unique spray patterns, and gelation, as well as providing a range of sensory and texture attributes.

CEKOL & FINNFIX Carboxymethyl Cellulose

CP Kelcos grades of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) are highly-purified, cold watersoluble polymers derived from cellulose. Carboxymethyl cellulose is versatile, costeffective way to add viscosity. CP Kelco offers the industrys most extensive range of viscosity grades, with flow properties ranging from nearly-Newtonian to pseudoplastic. Depending on the grade, they can have either thixotropic or non-thixotropic rheology. By choosing the right CEKOL or FINNFIX type, the formulator has the ability to achieve the desired rheology for any aqueous system, including suspensions and emulsions. Besides controlling the rheology, CEKOL and FINNFIX are known for excellent water retaining and film forming capacity. FINNFIX CMC is widely used within the fabric care industry as the anti-redeposit agent of choice in powder laundry detergents.

KELTROL & KELZAN Xanthan Gum
KELTROL and KELZAN Xanthan Gums are produced by a fermentation process using the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. The composition and structure of xanthan gum produced by commercial fermentation is identical to the naturally occurring polysaccharide formed by Xanthomonas campestris on plants belonging to the cabbage family. Xanthan gums pseudoplastic flow behavior provides high viscosities at low shear rates to improve suspension and emulsification, and low viscosities at high shear rates to give good flow properties when poured or pumped. The slight increase in viscosity resulting from very low use levels imparts the sensation of enhanced body.

GENUVISCO & GENUGEL Carrageenan

GENUVISCO and GENUGEL Carrageenan products are a family of sulphated polysaccharides extracted from certain species of red seaweed Rhodophyceae. By using the appropriate carrageenan product, the formulator can create textures ranging from free-flowing liquids to solid gels. In addition to offering standard types, CP Kelco works in conjunction with customers to develop new products and formulations for specific applications. Kappa carrageenan forms firm gels in the presence of sufficient levels of ions. Iota carrageenan forms elastic gels and thixotropic fluids in the presence of sufficient levels of ions. Lambda carrageenan forms viscous, non-gelling solutions.

KELCOGEL Gellan Gum

KELCOGEL Gellan Gum is a polysaccharide produced by fermentation of a pure culture of Sphingomonas elodea. The composition and structure of native gellan gum produced by commercial fermentation is identical to the naturally occurring polysaccharide formed by Sphingomonas elodea on plants of water lily varieties. The uniqueness of KELCOGEL is the ability to function while contributing minimal viscosity via the formation of a uniquely functioning fluid gel network. This network, consisting of a low concentration of weakly associated molecules, is extremely pseudoplastic. At rest, the fluid gel has a very high apparent viscosity resulting in excellent suspension of insoluble ingredients. Because of the weak molecular associations, the network is easily disrupted upon agitation, resulting in a low viscosity and a smooth pour. This multi-functional hydrocolloid can be used at low levels in a wide variety of products that require gelling, texturizing, stabilizing, suspending, spraying, film-forming and structuring. KELCOGEL gellan gum is available in two grades: high and low acyl content, which form soft and firm gels, respectively.

GENU Pectin
GENU Pectins are partially methyl esterified, anionic polysaccharides derived from naturally occurring structural components in fruits and vegetables. Because of its traditional uses in food products, pectin is well known by consumers and accepted as label friendly. The major commercial raw material source is citrus peel, although CP Kelco also produces pectin derived from sugar beets. There are two basic types of GENU pectin, differing in Degree of methyl Esterification (DE): High methylester (HM) pectin, DE higher than 50, forms gels and structured liquids under conditions of low pH and low water activity (for example, at high concentrations of sugar, sorbitol or glycerol). Low methylester (LM) pectin, DE lower than 50, forms gels in the presence of divalent cations, such as calcium and magnesium.

KELDENT KELZAN

xanthan gum

xanthan gum

The exceptional thickening and stabilizing characteristics of CP Kelcos xanthan gum family provides a versatile performance for a range of consumer products. Xanthan gum solutions are pseudoplastic. At rest, they are viscous. When mixed, pumped, sprayed or poured, the solutions thin. Once shear is removed, the solution recovers to starting viscosity almost immediately. Xanthan gum has outstanding stability to pH, salt and/or heat, and excellent compatibility with other ingredients. It is readily soluble in both hot and cold water. CP Kelcos xanthan gum grades are specifically designed for use as hydrophilic colloids to thicken and stabilize emulsions, foams and suspensions. Unique combinations of properties allow CP Kelco xanthan gum products to perform beyond the limits of many other commercially available hydrocolloids. The KELTROL CG xanthan gum family is designed specifically for cosmetic and personal care micro requirements. All KELTROL CG products are tested to ensure compliance with the purity criteria defined in the monographs for xanthan gum in the current editions of the US Pharmacopoeia/National Formulary (USP/NF) Japanese Pharmaceutical Excipients (JPE), and European Pharmacopoeia (EP). Formulators can choose from, a family of KELTROL CG products designed to meet specific needs and processing conditions.

KEY FEATURES
Pseudoplastic rheology Soluble in hot or cold water Stable over a range of pH and temperatures Functional in systems containing high concentrations of salt Excellent suspension of insolubles and stability of oil droplets Resistant to enzymatic degradation

KELZAN industrial grade xanthan gum products have been designed to meet the demanding environment of various industrial formulations. KELZAN grades are specially designed to meet formulation criteria including long-term suspension and emulsion stability in alkaline, acid and salt solutions; temperature resistance and pseudoplasticity. KELDENT xanthan gum is designed for use as a toothpaste binder. It gives a smooth, transparent and shiny paste which is easy to extrude from the tube or dispenser. KELDENT xanthan gum is also compatible with cellulosics, such as CEKOL cellulose gum. The XANTURAL xanthan gum family has been designed to meet the specific needs of the pharmaceutical industry. All XANTURAL xanthan gum products are manufactured according to bulk pharmaceutical excipient guidelines published by the International Pharmaceutical Excipients Council (IPEC) and are certified to meet the requirements specified in the USP/NF, European Pharmacopoeia and Japanese Pharmaceutical Excipient monographs. In addition, certain XANTURAL products also comply with Chapters 61/62 of the current USP Monograph.

Structure of Xanthan Gum

Xanthan gum is a high molecular weight polysaccharide produced via fermentation. Its unique functionality compared to other commercial polysaccharides is provided by the actual structure of the xanthan gum molecule. The polymer backbone is made up of -1,4-linked D-glucose residues and, therefore, is identical to the cellulose molecule. A trisaccharide branch containing one glucuronic acid unit between two mannose units is linked to every other glucose unit at the C(3) position.

CEKOL carboxymethyl cellulose

All CP Kelco grades of carboxymethyl cellulose are water-soluble polymers derived from cellulose by introducing carboxymethyl groups onto the cellulose backbone. The formed anionic cellulose molecules hydrates and dissolves readily in water. Through our manufacturing expertise and a deep knowledge of end-user requirements, CP Kelco offers the most extensive range of CMC products in the market today. These versatile products serve as water soluble stabilizers and thickeners widely used in consumer products applications such as toothpastes and personal care products. CEKOL grades are stable over a wide pH range and can be used in products within a pH range of 4.0 - 10.0. All CEKOL grades have a purity of minimum 99.5% and fully comply with FCC and BP/EP/USP regulations. Specially designed CEKOL toothpaste grades have very good water binding properties and provide a thick mouthfeel, as well as very good process versatility and compatibility to a wide variety of formulations and processes. FINNFIX CMC is a proven anti-redeposition aid. The use of FINNFIX CMC in powder detergents is one of the products oldest and most well-known applications. FINNFIX functions as a soil-suspending, anti-redeposition agent in powder detergent formulas. The pH of the wash water and the presence of anionic and non-ionic surfactants do not affect the adsorption of FINNFIX. During the rinse cycle, FINNFIX desorbs from the fabric surface, as a result of the reduced ionic strength. Certain types of FINNFIX swell on contact with water, allowing them to function as tablet disintegrants. The Best Choices table on the right is meant to provide ideas on how to get started. CP Kelco offers an extensive range of CEKOL and FINNFIX products beyond what is listed to meet specific customer demands.

KELCOGEL gellan gum

KELCOGEL gellan gum is a water-soluble polysaccharide produced by fermentation. This multifunctional gelling agent can be used alone or in combination with other products to produce a wide variety of interesting textures. KELCOGEL gellan gums are available in two types: low acyl and high acyl. Low acyl gellan gum forms firm, non-elastic, brittle gels. High acyl gellan gum forms soft, very elastic, non-brittle gels. Combining and varying the ratios of the two forms of gellan gum produces a wide variety of textures. Both low acyl and high acyl grades can be used at low concentrations to form fluid gels. Shearing during cooling disrupts gellan gum s normal gelation (both types) and results in a smooth, homogenous, pourable structured liquid or fluid gel. Fluid gels are extremely pseudoplastic and highly efficient at suspending a wide variety of items including solids and liquids of differing densities. Suspension occurs without significantly impacting viscosity.

KEY FEATURES
High gel strength Excellent stability Process flexibility and tolerance Sparkling clarity Range of textures available Flexibility in melting and setting points Suspension efficiency

Gentle agitation of a weak gellan gum gel, after it is set, is also sufficient to form a smooth, pourable gel. This means that fluid gels can be formed using standard filling operations. KELCOGEL CG products are manufactured to food GMPs and are tested to ensure compliance with the purity criteria defined in the monograph for gellan gum in the current edition of the US Pharmacopia/National Formulary.

Structure of Gellan Gum

The molecular structure of gellan gum is a linear chain based on repeating glucose, rhamnose and glucuronic acid units. In its native or high acyl form, two acyl substituents acetate and glycerate are present. Both substituents are located on the same glucose residue, and on average, there is one glycerate per repeat and one acetate per every two repeats. In low acyl gellan gum, the acyl groups are removed completely. The acyl groups have a profound influence on gel characteristics. The high acyl form produces soft, elastic, non-brittle gels, whereas the low acyl form produces firm, non-elastic, brittle gels.

GENU pectin

GENU pectin is first and foremost a gelling agent and is used to impart a gelled texture to products, traditionally used in food products such as jams and jellies. The gelling ability is further utilized where stabilization of multi-phases is required, either in the final product or at an intermediate stage in the process. GENU pectins are finding increasing use, particularly as gelling agents, but also as viscosity builders, protective colloids and stabilizers in a variety of consumer products. CP Kelco works in close contact with the industry to develop new pectin types to meet specific technology and regulatory requirements in the marketplace. To that end, GENU pectin USP/100 and GENU pectin USP/200 are tested to comply with Chapters 61/62 of the current USP monograph. Another unique property of GENU pectin is the ability to adjust the skin back to its natural pH when used in products such as creams, lotions, shaving products, or as a complimentary treatment following harsh products (such as bleaching, dipilatory and acne products). GENU pHresh pectin can be used to help protect the skins acid mantle and provide a normalizing effect to skin pH after being exposed to harsh conditions like washing or abrasion. Unlike other acidic materials such as alpha Hydroxy acid or citric acid, which penetrate the skin and cause irritations, GENU pectin is a longchain polysaccharide which means it is an exceptionally mild acid.

Structure of Pectin
Pectin is a purified carbohydrate product obtained by aqueous extraction of appropriate edible plant material usually citrus peel. Pectin consists mainly of galacturonic acid and galacturonic acid methyl ester units forming linear polysaccharide chains and is normally classified according to its Degree of Methoxylation/Esterification (DE). There are three classifications of pectin: HM (High Methoxyl) LMC (Low Methoxyl Conventional) LMA (Low Methoxyl Amidated) These pectins vary in their reactivity with calcium and what is required to form a gel. HM pectins require a certain amount of soluble solids and a low pH for gelation. LMC and LMA are less dependent on pH and soluble solids, but do require the presence of calcium or other divalent ions for gelation. LMA pectins provide processing tolerance and a controllable gel performance, while LMC pectins provide a softer, more shear tolerant system. The Best Choices table on the right is meant to provide ideas on how to get started. CP Kelco offers an extensive range of GENU pectin products beyond what is listed to meet the individual needs of customers.
