VEEGUM® D

EC Number
215-478-8
Chemical Name
Smectite-group minerals

VEEGUM® D Magnesium Aluminum Silicate is a dental care grade that ensures a stable and short paste or gel with excellent brush stand-up, flavor release and rinse ability. VEEGUM D works synergistically with organic gum binders, allowing the fine-tuning of dentifrice properties with minimal inhibition of fluoride recovery. VEEGUM D also reduces the slippery, stringy or sticky feel of gums and polymers. The incorporation of soluble pyrophosphate with VEEGUM D maximizes fluoride bioavailability.
