Gum Arabic (also known as E414, acacia gum) is a useful but rexpensive thickening agent, emulsifier, texturizer and film-former used in the beverages and confectionery.
The natural secretion of the acacia tree which is used as a binding agent in many liquid media. It improves the bonding properties of the ingredients in inks and watercolors, enabling them to stick to paper, and it helps to maintain a stable dispersion of pigment particles in water as the film of wash dries. (See Watercolor.)
A gum extracted from Acacia trees put in a solution that acts as a medium for watercolour paints.
gum from an acacia tree; used as a thickener (especially in candies and pharmaceuticals)
the binding agent for water-colour pigments which is soluble in water, and does not lose solubility when dry. Hence water-colours are susceptible to damp and should be exhibited behind protective layer of glass and sealed at the back.
Increases brilliancy, gloss and transparency of water colours. Used to bind colour pigments such as Pearl Ex powder. Helps control the flow of paint etc.
A purified natural vegetable gum obtained from the acacia tree that is used as a stabilizer/emulsifier.
Water soluble gum used as a binder for gouache watercolor.
Used in watercolor paint to paint on paper. It is high in plasticity and does not crack
Gum arabic is made from the sap of acacia trees. It is an an all natural gum used to bind our granola into those great crunchy clumps.
The vehicle into which watercolor pigments are ground. Comes from the resin of the acacia tree. Gum arabic is also used as a medium which increases the gloss and transparency of watercolors.
A water-soluble gum used for mixing vitreous paints.
A mixture of several gums, the best being that obtained from Acacia Senegal; it is usually completely soluble in water.
An herbal gum used as a thickener and emulsifier in creams and lotions, and as a hair set in styling gels and sprays. Often combined with Gum Tragacanth.

a preservative made of sugar, water, and powdered acacia. It is used with leaves such as mint and rose.
Gum arabic, a natural gum also called gum acacia, is a substance that is taken from two sub-Saharan species of the acacia tree, Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal. It is used primarily in the food industry as a stabilizer, but has had more varied uses in the past, including viscosity control in inks. Its E number is E-414.
