Modified Guar Gum

Modified Guar Gum
Guar Gum is one of the most cost effective and functional ingredients soluble in cold water, Guar imparts a high viscosity and exhibits superior water-binding capacity at low usage levels. But Modified Gums are finding increasing applications as compared to native Gums. Chemical Modifications of Guar Gum alters its properties such as Solubility, Viscosity, Stability of solutions, Biodegradability and Compatibility with salts. Modifications can be carried out by Substitution, Oxidation, Hydrolysis and Thermal Degradation and Crosslinking.

…Guar Gum is modified to impart specialized functional properties for specialized industrial applications.
