Cellulose, carboxymethyl ether

Description:
Cellulose carboxymethyl ether (CMC) is a cellulose derivative characterized by the substitution of carboxymethyl groups onto the cellulose backbone. It is a white to off-white powder that is soluble in water, forming a viscous solution, which makes it useful as a thickening agent, stabilizer, and emulsifier in various applications. CMC is non-toxic and biodegradable, making it suitable for use in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Its degree of substitution, which refers to the average number of carboxymethyl groups per glucose unit, influences its solubility and viscosity. CMC exhibits excellent film-forming properties and can improve the texture and mouthfeel of food products. Additionally, it has applications in the textile and paper industries, where it serves as a sizing agent. The substance is stable under normal conditions but can be sensitive to extreme pH levels and high temperatures. Overall, cellulose carboxymethyl ether is a versatile compound with a wide range of industrial and consumer applications due to its unique rheological properties.

  • Carboxymethyl cellulose

    CAS:

    Carboxymethyl cellulose is used in food as a viscosity modifier, thickener, to stabilise emulsions and are found in gluten-free and reduced-fat products. It is also a constituent of toothpaste, laxatives, diet pills, water-based paints, detergents, textile sizing, and various paper products.  In laundry detergents, it is used as a soil suspension polymer. It is also used in pharmaceuticals as a thickening agent and in the oil-drilling industry as a viscosity modifier and water-retaining agent.
