(Guar Gum Powder)
|
|
|
Guar gum powder is manufactured in a completely automated plant which
uses stringent quality control thus ensuring that the product adheres to perfect
hygiene and GMP guidelines. Guar Gum powder is manufactured by mechanical extraction
from the guar seed endosperm which contains about 80% Galactomannan (gum). The sieved
gum is then passed through blenders to make it homogenous. It is a white to creamish
amorphous powder, dispersible in cold and hot water to form a translucent and colourless
to whitish colloidal solution.

In comparison to other commercial available gums and hydrocolloids, Guar Gum Powder
at equivalent solids in water has the highest viscosity. The main properties of
guar gum powder is as follows:
|
-
The viscosity of its solution increases gradually with increasing concentration
of guar gum powder in water.
-
Temperature, pH, presence of salts and other solids influence the viscosity of guar
gum powder solution.
-
Guar Gum Powder has excellent ability to control rheology by economic water phase
management.
-
Guar gum powder has excellent thickening, emulsifying, stabilising and film forming
properties.
-
At very low concentration, Guar gum powder has excellent settling (flocculation)
properties and it acts as a filter aid.
