Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(Cmc)

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (SCMC or CMC) or Cellulose Gum is an anionic water soluble polymer; it is derived from cellulose, which is made water soluble by a chemical reaction. The water solubility is achieved by introducing carboxymethyl groups (-CH2-COOH) along the cellulose chain, which makes hydration of the molecule possible. The chemical name of SCMC is SODIUM SALT OF CARBOXYMETHYL ETHER OF CELLULOSE. CAS NUMBER: 9004-32-4. CHEMICAL FORMULA: [C6H7O2 (OH) x (OCH2COONa) y] n FUNCTIONS & PROPERTIES Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) has the following functions and properties: 1) it acts as a thickener, binder, stabilizer, suspending agent and flow controlling agent. 2) It forms fine films that are resistant to oils, greases, and organic solvents. 3) It dissolves rapidly in cold water. 4) Acts as a protective colloid reducing water losses. 5) It is suitable for use in food systems. 6) It is physiologically inert. 7) It is an anionic polyelectrolyte. These properties and functions make it suitable for use in a broad range of applications in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, paper, and other industries. To serve these diverse industries, CMC are available in three grades: HIGHLY PURIFIED, PURIFIED & TECHNICAL and in many types based on carboxymethyl substitution, viscosity, purity, particle size, and other parameters. APPLICATIONS CMC are widely use in Foods, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, Textiles, Papers & Corrugated Boards, Detergents, Paints, Oil Well Drillings, Welding Electrodes, Pesticides, Ceramics, Tobacco, Mosquito Repellent Incense, Explosives, Batteries, Pencils, Leathers & other industries.

Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a versatile water-soluble polymer derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plants. CMC is widely used in various industries for its exceptional thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying properties. In the food industry, CMC is employed as a food additive and thickening agent in a wide range of products. It acts as a binder, preventing ingredients from separating, and improves the texture and mouthfeel of processed foods such as sauces, dressings, ice cream, and baked goods. CMC is also used as a fat replacer in low-fat or reduced-calorie food products, providing a desirable consistency and enhancing flavor release. In the pharmaceutical industry, CMC is utilized as a binder in tablet formulations, contributing to their structural integrity. It is also employed as a suspending agent in liquid medications and as a lubricant in ophthalmic solutions. Moreover, CMC finds applications in the cosmetic industry, where it acts as a thickener and stabilizer in personal care products like lotions, creams, and shampoos. In addition to its industrial uses, CMC has practical applications in other fields such as textile printing, paper manufacturing, and oil drilling. Its versatility and functionality make sodium carboxymethyl cellulose a widely adopted additive across various industries.

Characteristics: Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (cmc)is white or yellowish powder that is odorless, tasteless and non-toxic. It has high hygroscopicity and is soluble in water to form a thick liquid. It is a polyanionic electrolyte and not fermented. It has good heat-stability, resistance to salt and film-forming property. It is a strong emulsifier for fat and oil . 25kg/ kraft bag lined with p.P bag
