DESCRIPTION
GUAR GUM

Properties and uses: It is obtained from the endosperm of the seeds of Cyamopsis tetragonolobus L. Taub. (fam. Leguminosae), by milling the endosperm followed by partial hydrolysis. Its main components are hydrocolloid polysaccharides made of D-galactose and D-mannose (galactomannans). Guar gum is a long-chain, high molecular weight polysaccharide that forms hydrocolloids when mixed with water. It is an example of soluble fiber. The gels it forms are usually of low consistency. Stable at pH 4.0–10.5. It is also used as a suspending agent in oral and topical formulations, as a thickener to stabilize emulsions, and as a binder and disintegrant in tablets.

Practical formulation guide
Formulation tips:
  • Carbomers lose viscosity with electrolytes and at acidic pH; add salts, extracts and acidic actives carefully.
  • To suspend particles (exfoliants, beads), a thickener with yield value is required, such as carbomer or xanthan gum.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Incompatibilities: Acetone, alcohol, tannins, strong acids and bases, borates. Gels may liquefy at pH < 7.
Storage: In tightly closed containers. PROTECT FROM LIGHT AND MOISTURE.
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
