Puragum AX (Use as Solagum AX)
Description |
Universal Multi-functional: thickening, stabilizing and texturizing It is obtained using an innovative and sustainable manufacturing process for which the acacia gum coats the xanthan gum. The ratio of this combination has been optimized for an excellent balance between performance and texture. It is a 100% natural thickening and stabilizing polymer that is easily dispersed in water (or oil) and provides a unique sensory experience with no stringy or sticky effects and instant freshness. Coating xanthan gum with acacia gum particles allows you to get transparent and dense gels, a preparation process that will save you from long mixing and the formation of lumps of undissolved powder. |
