Natural water-soluble polysaccharide (emulsifying stabilizer, suspending agent) "Arabic gum"
Arabic gum is a polysaccharide that has a structure called polyuronate. Its aqueous solution has low viscosity and strong emulsifying stability.
Arabic gum is a polysaccharide that has a structure called polyuronate. Its structure consists of galactose in the main chain and galactose, arabinose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid in the side chains. It is classified as a negatively charged water-soluble polymer with a molecular weight of about 250,000, and its aqueous solution exhibits low viscosity. Arabic gum is a polysaccharide obtained from the resin of the Acacia senegal species, which is widely distributed in northern Africa and Sudan, between latitudes 10 to 20 degrees north. 【Properties】 ■ Solubility: Soluble in cold water and can dissolve in high concentrations of over 50%. ■ Viscosity: Exhibits very low viscosity of less than 100 mPa·s in a 20% aqueous solution. 【Functions】 ■ Emulsifying stabilizer ■ Suspending agent ■ Coating agent ■ Binding agent 【Product Range】 We import Arabic gum, powder it, and sell it. ■ Arabic Gum HP ■ Arabic Gum HP Powder ■ Arabic Gum HP Coarse Granules 【Industrial Applications】 ■ Dispersion stabilization of pigments, etc. ■ Paints and inks ■ Adhesives *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
