Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is a high-purity, water-soluble anionic polymer derived from natural cellulose. It appears as a white to slightly yellow, odorless, free-flowing powder or granules. As one of the most important cellulose ethers, it is renowned for its exceptional thickening, binding, emulsifying, and film-forming properties. When dissolved in water, it forms clear, viscous colloidal solutions that are stable over a wide pH range, making it an indispensable and versatile additive across numerous industries. Our CMC is produced under strict quality control, ensuring consistent viscosity, substitution degree (DS), and purity tailored for diverse applications.
