Industrial Guar Gum Powder | Cassia Tora Powder
Overview
Guar gum, extracted from the pods of the guar plant, is widely used as an emulsifier, thickener, and stabilizer in food and cosmetics. Guar gum is used in food as a thickening and binding agent. It is also used in textile, paper, pharmaceutical, oil and many other industries. After refine process, Guar Gum is used in various industries: in the food industry as a stabilizer, in ice creams instant puddings and whipped cream substitutes, as a meat binder and a stabilizer for cheeses, in industrial applications including cloth and paper manufacture, oil well drilling, explosives, ore flotation and many other applications.
Guar Gum is used as a Natural thickener, Emulsifier, Stabiliser, Bonding agent, Hydrocolloid, Geling agent, Soil Stabiliser, Natural fiber, Flocculant, Fracturing agent, etc.
The applications of Guar Gum in various industries are as follows:

| |
Sauces |
|
improve flow properties. |

Industrial Guar Gum Powder
The company supplies a wide range of industrial guar gum powders suitable for use in painting, printing, fire control, dyeing, and textiles. As a stabilizer, thickener and suspending agent Guar gum can also be used in industrial applications and preparations.
| Industrial Application |
 |
In Construction |
: |
As waterproofing agent. |
 |
In Textiles |
: |
For sizing and finishing. |
 |
In Cosmetics and |
: |
As conditioner and viscosifier, thickener in |
| |
Pharmaceuticals |
|
toothpastes and shampoos, binder in |
| |
|
|
tablets, to disintegrate compressed tablets |
| |
|
|
and
Mild laxative and soluble dietary fiber. |
 |
In Paper |
: |
For improved sheet formation, increased |
| |
|
|
bursting strength, fold strength, denser |
| |
|
|
surface for printing and to get better finish. |
 |
In Oil Field |
: |
For increase the production rate of oil and |
| |
|
|
gas. The use of guar gum increases the oil |
| |
|
|
recovery. Guar gum is used as a surfactant, |
| |
|
|
synthetic polymer and defoamer ideally |
| |
|
|
suited for all rheological requirements of |
| |
|
|
water-based and brine-based drilling fluids. |
 |
In Oil well drilling
|
: |
As Fluid-loss controlling agent and |
| |
and Fracturing |
|
additives in fracturing fluids. |
 |
In Mining |
: |
For concentration of ores and flocculation |
| |
|
|
and better recovery. |
 |
In Explosives |
: |
As water binding agent for aqueous slurry |
| |
|
|
explosives. |

Cassia Tora Powder
 |
Pet Food |
: |
It is used as thickening agent in place of |
| |
|
|
Locust Bean Gum or Carob Gum, in |
| |
|
conjunction with Carrageenan or xanthan gum for wet canned pet food. |
 |
Air Fresheners |
: |
It is used in making air freshener gels. |
 |
Food Additive |
: |
It is also used as a food additive. |
 |
Other Applications |
: |
Cassia Tora powder is very useful in the manufacture of gels in combination of other colloids and has potentially many food applications. Cassia powder swells in water and forms high-viscosity aqueous colloids after it is boiled. It is used as a thickening agent in pet food and other technical applications (e.g. emulsification, foam stabilization, moisture retention and texture improvement) at concentrations comparable to those of other edible natural gums. |
