The Corrugation Gum Powder (Alkaline) that we offer is partly hydrolyzed and is prepared using high grade starch and roasted in the presence of several catalysts. This ensures that the larger molecules of the Corrugation Gum Powder (Alkaline) are broken down to smaller sizes and it has a consistent viscosity.
Attributes

• Excellent bonding
• High strength film
• Enhances the stress and strain tolerance of completed corrugated boxes
• High adhesive characteristics
• Stable viscosity prevents uneven pick-up of the gum solution
• Low gelatinization temperature ensures minimal power consumption which increases machine speed
• Increased productivity

• Physical Description : Fine, dry, White, off white powder
• Moisture Content (% by weight) : 10% max.
• PH : 11 to 12
• Viscosity (measured in B4 cup) : 35 to 45 seconds
• Particle size : 80% pass through 80 mesh

• The powder is formulated so that it is easy to prepare and use. No specialized skill or machines are required
• The first step is to fill the drum with the adequate level of water and then the entire bag of powder is emptied in it
• It is then stirred to avoid formation of lumps
• After waiting for 30 minutes, the mixture will have a uniform viscosity
• Then more water can be added as per the requirement and stirred
• Now the mixture can be used

• It must never be mixed along with any other gum or solution
• To prevent formation of lumps during the preparation of Gum solution, the powder should be added to water and not vice versa
