Guarplo® is derived from natural and modified polysaccharides (Galactomannans). It is available in various grades tailored to the needs of the explosives industry. In such applications, Guarplo® acts as a water barrier in cartridge explosives and a suspending agent in slurry explosives. It enhances water resistance, prevents segregation of solid ingredients, and maintains sensitivity in water-filled boreholes.
