PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Guar Gum is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the seeds of the guar plant (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba), mainly composed of galactomannan. It appears as a white to creamy-white free-flowing powder, odorless or with a slight characteristic odor. It has extremely high water solubility and thickening ability, forming highly viscous solutions even at low concentrations, and is widely used as a thickener, stabilizer, binder, and water retention agent.
