The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glucans, polysaccharides consisting only of glucose residues. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of polysaccharides, polymers of more than 10 monosaccharide residues joined by glycosidic linkages, occurring at the level of an individual cell. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of xyloglucan, the cross-linking glycan composed of 1->4-beta-D glucan backbone substituted at regular intervals with beta-D-xylosyl-1->6 residues, which is present in the primary cell wall of most higher plants. The chemical reactions and pathways involving glucans, polysaccharides consisting only of glucose residues.
