Sodium carboxymethyl starch

Description:
Sodium carboxymethyl starch (CMS) is a modified starch derived from natural starch through a chemical process that introduces carboxymethyl groups. It is commonly used as a thickening agent, stabilizer, and emulsifier in various food and pharmaceutical applications. CMS is characterized by its high water solubility, which allows it to form viscous solutions, making it effective in enhancing the texture and consistency of products. It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for consumption and is often utilized in food products, dietary supplements, and as a binder in tablets. The substance exhibits excellent film-forming properties and can improve the stability of emulsions. Additionally, CMS has applications in the textile and paper industries due to its ability to modify viscosity and enhance the performance of formulations. Its chemical structure contributes to its functionality, allowing it to interact with other ingredients effectively. Overall, sodium carboxymethyl starch is valued for its versatility and effectiveness in various industrial and consumer applications.
