ROKOGEL 4000 is a free flowing powder, off white to yellowish, based on Tara gum. ROKOGEL 4000 is used as a thickener and stabilizing agent in food applications. It provides benefits such as high water retention which reduces syneresis in food products. ROKOGEL 4000 also offers good stability to pH between 3 and 11 and is stable to freezing/thawing and sterilization processes common in food manufacturing. It displays pseudo plasticity and is compatible with other hydrocolloids commonly used in food formulations.
