Carboxymethyl Cellulose

Carboxymethyl cellulose

Carboxymethyl cellulose is the Sodium salt of Carboxymethyl Cellulose,usually briefed as CMC. It is produced from cellulose, e.g. wood or cotton linters. The process of adding carboxymethyl cellulose group into the cellulose chain,which makes the cellulose soluble. It is non-toxic,environmental-friendly naturally derived hydrocolloids.

CMC is white or light yellowish odorless powder or granular.It is soluble in cold or hot water into clarified solution.CMC provides viscosity and rheology control in water based system,functions as thickener and binder in numbers of applications include food,pharm.toothpaste,paper making,textile,ceramic,oilfield,mining and batteries.
