Guar Gum Split

It is basically the endosperm part of the guar seed which is commercially extracted from the seeds by a mechanical process of cracking, roasting, differential attrition, sieving and polishing. The seeds are crack opened and the germ is separated from the endosperm. It is refined endosperm derived from guar seed or cluster bean (cyamoperm tetragonoloba) non ionic polysaccharide galacomannan. It is mechanically separated from guar seed which yields 28-30% of Refined Split. Guar beans are harvested and dried following the growing season. The beans are shelled from the pods, the germ and husk removed. The resulting splits are wet-milled into powder; the powder is graded by granulation and quality. Guar Gum Split with its versatile inherent properties is used all over the globe with different utilities in many industries like Petroleum (Oil drilling), textile, printing, food pharma, cosmetic, toiletries paper, tanneries, mining, explosives, pet food etc. These industries use Guar Gum in powder form either directly plain Guar Gum Powder or in derived form. Guar Gum is a white to yellowish white powder. It is nearly odourless. Fine finished Guar Gum Powder is available in different viscosities and different granulometrics depending on the desired viscosity development and application.
