Guar Gum CAS 9000-30-0 for Food Additives/Food Thickeners
Product Description
Guar gum is obtained from the endosperm part of Cyamposis tetragonolobus seeds after removing the skin and germ. After drying and grinding, water is added,,pressure hydrolysis is carried out and precipitation is made with 20% ethanol. After centrifugation, the endosperm.
is dried and crushed. Guar gum is a nonionic galactomannanextracted from the endosperm of guar bean, a leguminous plant. Guar gum and
It's derivatives have good water solubility and high viscosity at low mass fraction.
Guar gum is also known as guar gum, guar gum or guanidine gum. Its English name is Guargum.

Funtion
Guar gum generally refers to guar gum, under normal circumstances, guar gum has the effect of increasing the consistency of food, enhancing the stability of food, improving the texture of food, increasing the fiber content of food, and alleviating skin discomfort.
1. Increase the viscosity of food:
Guar gum can be used as a thickening agent to increase the consistency and taste of foods, such as jelly, pudding, sauce and other foods are often used.
2. Enhance the stability of food:
Guar gum can enhance the stability of food, prevent the separation and precipitation of water in food, and extend the shelf life of food.
3. Improve the texture of food:
Guar gum can improve the texture of food, making it softer and richer in taste, for example, it is often used in baked goods such as bread and cakes.
4. Increase the fiber content of your food:
Guar gum is a soluble fiber that increases the fiber content of foods, helping to promote digestion and maintain intestinal health.
5. Relieve skin discomfort:
Guar gum is a natural resin and a solid gel. Generally extracted from guar gum, it is rich in a variety of amino acids and vitamins and other nutrients, appropriate external use can relieve skin discomfort.
Application
Guar gum powder is widely used in various fields, mainly including food industry, pharmaceutical industry, industrial field and so on.
Guar gum powder is mainly used as thickener, stabilizer and emulsifier in food industry . It can significantly increase the viscosity of the liquid and improve the texture and taste of the food. For example, adding guar gum to ice cream prevents the formation of ice crystals and gives the ice cream a smoother texture. In breads and cakes, guar gum improves the water retention and viscosity of the dough, making the finished product softer and fluffier . In addition, guar gum is also used in meat products, dairy products, jelly, condiments and other foods, playing a thickening, emulsification, suspension, stability and other functions .
In pharmaceutical industry , guar gum powder is mainly used as a controlled release and thickening agent for drugs. It can form a sticky goo in the gut, delaying the release of the drug, so as to achieve the effect of long-term treatment. In addition, guar gum is also used as a thickening agent in ointments and creams to improve the spreadability and stability of medicines .
Guar gum powder is also widely used in industrial field . In the paper industry, it is used as a thickening agent and strengthening agent for pulp to improve the strength and printing performance of paper; In oil drilling, guar gum, as one of the main components of drilling fluid, has excellent thickening and filtration reduction properties, effectively improve the viscosity of drilling fluid, prevent well wall collapse, and protect oil and gas reservoir .
In addition, guar gum powder is also used as sizing agent and printing paste in textile industry , to improve the strength and wear resistance of yarns, reduce the breakage rate and flaring, improve production efficiency and product quality; In the cosmetics industry, it acts as a thickener and emulsifier to provide a silky texture and help the active ingredients penetrate the skin better .
