Product Description

Guar Gum is a white to yellowish white powder. It is nearly odourless. Dissolve in hot or cold water guar gum forms a paste of high viscosity. Guar's viscosity is a function of temperature, time and concentration. • It is soluble in hot and cold water but insoluble in most organic solvents. • It is non-ionic and maintains a constant high viscosity over a broad range of pHs • The viscosity of its solution increases gradually with increasing concentration of guar gum in water. • Temperature, pH, presence of salts and other solids influence the viscosity of Guar Gum solution. • Guar Gum forms highly viscous colloidal dispersions when hydrated in cold water. The time required for complete hydration in water and to achieve maximum viscosity depend on various factors, *****, the pH, temperature, grade of powder used and equipment etc. • Guar Gum is compatible with a variety of inorganic and organic substances including certain dyes and various constituents of food. • Guar Gum has excellent thickening, emulsifying, stabilizing and film forming properties • At very low concentration, Guar Gum has excellent settling (flocculation) properties and it acts as a filter aid. Guar Gum powder has strong hydrogen bonding properties. Storage: Guar Gum Powder in bags should be stored in clean dry place, away from direct heat. Availability: Guar Gum Powder is available in *5 Kg Paper bags with inside polythene liner.
