Guar Gum Powder Properties

guar-gum-extract

The Guar gum when dissolved in water produces galactose, hexose sugar, and mannose. One quality of hexose sugars is that it can dissolve in hot water and cold water. The viscosity of the aqueous solution increases but when acid is brought into contact the viscosity or density of the fluid reduces. The strong acids which can cause hydrolysis and alkalies in strong concentration tend to reduce the viscosity. Borax addition will form a gelatine mass which can be used with starch agar and alginate. Agro Gums leads in the manufacture of high viscosity guar gum powder in the 3500 to 8000 CPS range. Guar gum powder specifications include many factors such as viscosity, moisture content, and particle size distribution.

The ETO free Guar Gum is a novel agrochemical processed from the endosperm of cluster bean. The gum beautifully dissolves in polar solvent on dispersion and forms strong hydrogen bonds. The rate of Ethylene Oxide free guar gum dissolution and viscosity development increases with decreasing particle size, decreasing pH, and increasing temperature. This along with its economical nature makes it very popular in the gum and stabilizer industry. Its inherent properties can also be seen as it has high tensile strength due to the gum’s linearity and high molecular weight. The factors that majorly affect the properties of the Ethylene Oxide free guar gum powder are its fat content, moisture level, granulation, gum content ratio, and ability to filter.

  • A few worth mentioning qualities is that it is highly soluble in hot and cold water.
  • It has filming properties and shows a lot of stability in solutions with ph values from 5 to 7.
  • It is used as excellent thickening properties and even when used in small quantities can give greater viscosity.
  • The water-binding capacity is excellent but it shows resistance to oil solvents.
  • Food combinations use the gum with various hydrocolloids.
  • A versatile product with several free hydroxy groups and even has efficient functionality even at low temperatures.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR GUAR GUM POWDER PROPERTIES

A: Guar Gum Powder, when dissolved in water, produces galactose, hexose sugar, and mannose. Hexose sugars have the unique property of being able to dissolve in both hot and cold water.

A: The viscosity or density of the aqueous solution of Guar Gum Powder increases, but when in contact with acids, the viscosity decreases. Strong acids can cause hydrolysis, and alkalies in strong concentration also reduce viscosity. Additionally, the addition of borax can form a gelatine mass when combined with Guar Gum Powder.

A. ETO free Guar Gum Powder, derived from the endosperm of cluster bean, dissolves beautifully in polar solvents, forming strong hydrogen bonds. The rate of dissolution and viscosity development increases with decreasing particle size, decreasing pH, and increasing temperature. Its high tensile strength is attributed to the gum's linearity and high molecular weight.

A. Guar Gum Powder exhibits high solubility in both hot and cold water. It also possesses filming properties and remains stable in solutions with pH values ranging from 5 to 7.

A. Guar Gum Powder possesses an excellent water-binding capacity, which is beneficial for applications requiring moisture retention. This property is particularly valuable in the food industry for maintaining freshness and enhancing texture.
