    Product Characeristics
    •  White to cream coloured powder.
    •  Extracted from the endosperm of Guar seeds, “Cyamopsis Tetragonalobus”.
    •  Hot and cold-water soluble Galactomannan Polysaccharide. Beta 1,4 linear mannose backbone chain with a single galactose side unit on approximately (average) every alternate mannose unit in an alpha 1,6 linkage.
    •  Exhibits high viscosity at low concentrations in water. Non-Newtonian, pseudo-plastic (shear thinning) rheology. Viscosities increase exponentially with increasing concentrations in water.
