It is very evident that gums have very vast application in pharmaceutical and food industries. As a result of this, there is increasing in demands for gums globally, which causes the increase in prices of the existing gums in the local and international market. For the price to be stable and less expensive there is need to look for alternative or discoveries of more suitable natural gums which will be of the same quality or even surpass the existing ones. The book presents the Physicochemical and Rheological properties of four gum exudates of Nigerian origin which have never been exploited...

This book presents physicochemical properties and corrosion inhibition potentials of gum exudate from Commiphora Africana. Exudate gums are obtained as the natural exudates of different tree species and exhibit unique properties in a wide variety of applications. The book covers the chemical structure, occurrence and production of the gum. Furthermore, it gives an overview of the main application fields of the plant gums, both in food, polymer and pharmaceutics

Corrosion is an electrochemical process which involves the transfer of electrons between a metal surface and an aqueous solution. The consequences are large losses of products, environmental pollution and ecological disaster. Most metals corrode when they are in contact with aggressive medium such as moisture in the air, either in acids, bases, salts, oils, aggressive metals polishes, and liquid chemicals. One of the methods of combating corrosion is the use of corrosion inhibitors that decrease the corrosion rates to the desired level with minimal environmental impact. The field of corrosion...

Exudates are complex mixtures of organic compounds oozed by plants, often, but not always as a result of injury. These products are rich in carbon and hydrogen atoms and are also commonly called "sap" although the word "sap" is used to describe any fluid that travels inside plants. Only little research is currently underway on gums from African plants, yet Africa imports a lot of gums for pharmaceutical and food industries. This books presents exudate gum from Daniella oliverri which has been analyzed for their physiochemical properties, chemical constituents (using GC-MS). Their application...
