Tara gum# 39300-88-4
Tara gum is a high-performance natural edible colloid with the following stability characteristics:1. Excellent thermal stability, maintaining stable properties even under varying temperature conditions.2. Excellent chemical stability, unlikely to react adversely with other substances, thus broadening its applicability.Furthermore, it possesses multiple practical functions: for example, high viscosity, providing high viscosity even at low concentrations, resulting in high efficiency. It also has emulsifying capabilities, helping to stabilize mixed systems, and water-retention properties, reducing moisture loss. Its good compatibility allows for excellent colloidal compounding performance, facilitating its use in combination with other colloids and expanding its application scenarios.
Tara gum Chemical Properties
General Description | Off-white powder. |
Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. |
Reactivity Profile | These substances undergo chemical reactions only under relatively severe circumstances or in the presence of an effective catalyst that promotes reaction. They are resistant to ignition, although they may become flammable at very high temperatures. They will be resistant to oxidation/reduction, except in the most severe conditions. These materials may be nontoxic. |
Health Hazard | ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition Tara gum emits acrid smoke and fumes. |
Fire Hazard | Flash point data for Tara gum are not available. Tara gum is probably combustible. |

Tara gum# 39300-88-4 Application
In the food industry, tara gum is used as a thickener, gelling agent, and stabilizer, applicable to a wide range of food categories, including cream, juice, clear beverages, dairy products, as well as jams, jellies, candies, cheeses, and canned meat products. Its main function in food is to maintain the food's inherent stability, preventing stratification or spoilage. It also helps maintain a homogeneous and stable food system, achieving both suspension and emulsion formation, and in some cases, even aiding in gel formation.
Beyond the food industry, tara gum also has extensive applications in industrial sectors, including textiles, papermaking, printing and dyeing, and petroleum. In industry, it functions as a functional additive, acting as an adhesive, thickener, and emulsifier to facilitate smooth production processes. It is also used as a raw material in the manufacture of adhesives, paints, and other industrial products, supporting their performance.
