Refined Splits Guar Gum

Specifications

1. During last decade Guar has immerged as an important industrial raw material and Produced by man for thousands of years. India has been the single largest producer and exporters of Guar gum accounting for more than 80 percent of the global output and trade and that to involves a important share of A Part of North Gujarat. (Western Part of India)
2. Guar has now assumed a larger role among the domesticated plants due to its unique functional properties.
3. The byproduct of Guar Gum industry consisting of the outer seed coat and germ material is called guar meal. The Guar meal after gum Extraction is a potential source of protein and contains about 42% crude protein which is one and a half times more than the level of protein in guar seed.

2. Its specific colloidal nature gives the solution an excellent thickening power which is 6 to 10 times thicker than that obtained from starch.
3. It is stable over a wide range of PH and it also improves the flowablility and pumpability of the fluid. It is a superior friction loss reducing agent.
