water-soluble Pullulan Powder CAS 9057-02-7 for Pharmaceutical and Food Additives
Pullulan can be processed into many kinds of products. It is with good film-forming property, and the formed pullulan film is very stable; it is also with extremely good oxygen isolation performance, so that in medicine and food industry, it is widely used in capsule binder, thickening agent, adhesive, food package and others. In Japan, taking as a kind of dietary supplements, Pullulan has 20 years of application history and has passed the American GRAS certification.
Description: Pullulanis natural water-soluble polysaccharide, fermented by Auveobasidium Pullulans. It consists mainly of maltotriose units linked through α-1, 6 - glucosidic bonds. The average molecular weight is 2×105 Da. Pullulan can be developed into various products.
Pullulan is an excellent filmformer, producing a film which is heat sealable with good oxygen barrier properties. It can be used widely in both the pharmaceutical and food industries, such as encapsulating agents, adhesives, thickening, and extending agent.
Properties： Pullulan is non-toxic, non-mutagenic, odorless, tasteless, and edible. Pullulan powders are white and non-hygroscopic and dissolve readily in hot or cold water. Pullulan solutions are of relatively low viscosity. The viscosity of pullulan solutions is stable to heating, changes in pH, and most metal ions, including sodium chloride.
Pullulan is safe, heat-resisting, salt-tolerant, acid and alkali resistant, with good viscosity and heat stability, strong plasticity; it can form film and has good gas isolation and strong moisture permeability. It is also with adhesiveness, adhesion, decomposability. It can improve physical property; maintain moisture, forming property, spinning property and others.
Application: In the nature, Pullulan can be degraded and used by microorganism and doesn’t cause environmental pollution, so that it honored as pollution-free plastic. It has widely application in cosmetic, medicine, food, chemical industry, environmental protection, and pesticides.
