  • Applications

    Succinoglycan (CAS 73667-50-2) is a microbial exopolysaccharide commonly evaluated as a thickener and rheology modifier in formulated systems. In cosmetics and personal care, it provides viscosity enhancement and emulsion stabilization in creams, lotions, and gels. In household and cleaning products, it acts as a thickener and stabilizer for detergents and surface cleaners. In coatings and inks, it offers controlled viscosity and suspension performance as a thickening additive. In industrial manufacturing, it is explored as a bio-based thickener for adhesive and polymer formulations, and in oilfield applications as a viscosifying agent for drilling fluids. Its use depends on grade and formulation, and is subject to local regulations and limits.
