Pullulan CAS NO.9057-02-7

1): Our products is more natural, involving no toxic chemicals, much less environment polluting in its production process.
2): Pullulan is a safe ingredients which has been listed on the USP-NF (United States Pharmacopoeia—National Formulary)
and JP (Japanese Pharmacopoeia).
3): Pullulan  has good “workability” and strong binding characteristics when compared with other binders. And the
viscosity is only slightly affected by changes in pH or salt.

Characteristic

• Solubility: Excellent solubility in cold and warm water. But not soluble in organic solvent except dimethylformamide; dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO);
• Stability: Compared with other hydrocolloid, Heallan forms low viscous but non-gelling solution in water. And the viscosity is only slightly affected by changes in pH or salt.
•  Lubricity: Solution of Heallan is a Newtonian fluid. Although the viscosity is very low, it has good lubricity Adhesiveness: Very strong adhesiveness after dried, Suitable for making dried food, pill & pelleting.
•  Film Forming: It is easy to form film on food and metal. Meantime, the solution could form water-soluble,transparent, coriaceous film. This film has very strong oxygen barrier property and could be used as smells keeper, water keeper & oil defender.
• Resolvability: Same with Agar, CMC, HPMC
• Mold ability: Under heating & high pressure condition, it could be made to edible fiber and model

Application
Food Ingredient:
 

• Glazing Agent for aquatic product producing.
• Water Inhibiter for frozen food (bakery etc)
• Coagulator for dried food
• Coating agent for candy               

Cosmetic ingredients:

Could be used for creating luxuriant smoothness for skin, hair care and facial cleansing products.
Furthermore, the excellent adhesive property of Heallan also provides an opportunity to create new products
such as facial masks that can be easily washed away. Heallan produces easily dissolvable films, making it an
effective and stable carrier for active ingredients, colors and fragrances.

Pharmaceutical Ingredient:

A unique benefit of using Heallan for film coating is its exceptional oxygen barrier property that can help
stabilize active ingredients against oxidation and noticeably reduce strong or unpleasant odors from tablets
or coated particles. And can also be used to make non-animal capsules
