What Is Hydroxypropyl Guar Gum?

Hydroxypropyl guar gum (HPG), CAS 39421-75-5, is a nonionic modified guar polysaccharide. Hydroxypropyl substitution lowers the insoluble residue compared with native guar, which makes HPG a standard gelling agent for crosslinked fracturing fluids and a thickener for industrial aqueous systems.

Two powder grades are available, differing in viscosity, fine-particle content and water-insoluble matter. Grade I viscosity is measured on a 0.6% solution at 30°C and 170 s−1; the Grade II viscosity method is agreed at order. Compare results only under the same test conditions.

HPG is not regulated as dangerous goods. Store the bags dry, as moisture causes lumping and affects hydration.

As a hydroxypropyl guar supplier and exporter in China, ZXCHEM packs the cream-coloured free-flowing powder in 25 kg kraft-paper bags with an inner film liner. Lead time is about 14 days from order confirmation.

FORMULATION

Hydroxypropyl Guar Gum Applications

Fracturing fluids

Gelling agent for borate- or metal-crosslinked fracturing fluids. Hydration rate, crosslink time and residue are tested with the actual water and additives.

Industrial thickening

Thickener for industrial aqueous formulations. The grade is selected on viscosity and insoluble-matter limits.

Grade selection

Both grades are tested under the same solution preparation, temperature and shear conditions before the dose is set.
