Paper Industry

Guar gum is as a wet-end additive. This means that the gum is added to the pulp suspension just before the sheet is formed on either a foundrinier machine or a cylinder machine. The pulping process, which is designed to remove lignin and there by produce a fibrous celluloid pulp, also removes a large part of the hemicelluloses normally present in the wood. Guar gum replace or supplement the natural hemicelluloses in paper bonding. It is also useful foresheet formation, mulled bursting strength, fold strength, tensile strength, measure of the force required, to pull a fibre from the surface of sheet, machine speed that all parameters are increased and porosity of the paper is decrease.


Oil and Gas Industry

Guar gum and Guar derivatives are used in the fracturing of oil and gas wells because their ability to thicken water efficiently at low concentration. They carry the sand or propping agent needed to keep the fracture from closing when the pressure is released. They are reliable polymers that will hydrate in field waters under many conditions.


Explosive Industry

Guar gum and guar derivatives are used in the explosive industry because of their ability to efficiently thicken the nitrate salt solution which are basic component of slurry explosive formulations. The gums are readily cross-linked to from stable water-resistant gels.


Textile Industry

Guar gum and guar derivatives thicken the dye baths that are used in the printing and dyeing of fibres, fabrics, and carpets. The gums control the rheological of the dye formulations and permit complex multiple dye patterns that are sharp, bright and controlled as to penetration.


Mining Industry

In this industries ,Guar gum is used principally as a flocculant to produce a liquid-solid separation by filtration, settling and clarification of mineral slurries. The property used is the ability of the gum to absorb on the hydrated mineral particles by hydrogen bonding followed by agglomerating as a result of bridging. Guar gum is also used in flotation to recover base metals. Guar gum acts as a depressant for talc or insoluble gangue minerals mined along with the valuable minerals.
