How can you thicken these without gumming up the works?
H3PO4
Without KELZAN ®you'd stand a pretty thin chance if you wanted to thicken Phosphoric Acid or Sodium Hydroxide. But as soon as KELZAN, Kelco's xanthan gum, comes in contact with water it starts controlling it. It will enable you to thicken even these extremes. And all it takes is a very little bit. KELZAN is stable across practically the entire pH range. Its viscosity is almost unchanged at temperatures from just above freezing to near

boiling. Its pseudoplastic rheology is ideal for any water based system that benefits from stop-go flow characteristics. If your operation can benefit from KELZAN'S properties, let us know. We'll send you more information and free samples. Sometimes it's better to be in the thick of it. Isn't it?
