PAPER INDUSTRY Guar gum - Coggle Diagram
PAPER INDUSTRY
Guar gum
Physical properties of Guar gum chemical
Uses of chemical
Guar gum provides paper a harder surface for simpler printing, according to the paper industry. Its bonding strength makes it easier to erase and write on the paper, and it is the chemical that supports in the folding of the paper.
The use of guar gum improves sheet production.
Guar gum powder helps in the paper industry by improving the surface qualities of dry paper as well as the storage of smaller particles and other substances.
The molecular weight is .20,000 daltons.
The solubility in water was high.
White power, soluble in water, colorless and transparent in water solution, and almost tasteless.
HEALTH IMPACT
Effects the chemicals caused to exposed workers
Exposure pathway and target organ
Controls measure
Engineering controls are used to reduce or provide a shield between a worker and a hazard.
To provide this high level of protection, well-designed engineering controls can be highly successful in protecting workers.
Wear PPE such as face protection, skin protection like face shields and chemical goggles.
If huge quantities of particulates are inhaled, decreased respiratory function, airway disorders, and illnesses such as asthma or chronic bronchitis may increase.
By ingestion, the worker's health can still be risked, especially if post organ damage like liver, kidney.
Increased gas production, vomiting, and loose stools are some of the side effects.
After a few days of use, these side effects normally decrease or disappear.
The esophagus and intestines can become blocked if they exposed too much guar gum.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Changes the chemicals to the environment
Underlying causes of the impacts
Mitigations
Research of Guar Gum Biopolymer Treatment for Drought Cracking Mitigation on Expansive Soft Soils.
In terms of environmental impact, guar plants grow in closer conditions, and like other beans harbor nitrogen fixing bacteria in the roots, making them a good production in a rotation to improve the yield of successive crops.
Guar Gum is 100% natural and made from Guar Beans.
Guar gum is an environmentally friendly.
Guar gum is a natural water-soluble polymer that is widely used and available in large quantities in many countries.
