Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) or Cellulose Gum is an anionic, water-soluble Cellulose derivative. CMC is a white to slightly yellowish powder or granulate with a neutral taste and smell. Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is the major Cellulose Ether. Cellulose Gum films are resistant to oils, fats and organic solvents.

Carboxymethyl Cellulose functions as a thickener, binder, stabilizer, protective colloid, suspending agent, gelling agent, and flow control agent. This makes CMC suitable for use in a variety of industries.

 

Applications:

Carboxymethyl Cellulose is soluble in water at any temperature. Due to its high solubility and clarity of its solutions, CMC is commonly used in beverages and food industry.

In Construction Industry, CMC is used in most of the compositions of cement and building materials because it acts as a stabilizer and hydrophilic agent.

The detergent industry is the largest consumer of Carboxymethyl Cellulose. CMC compositions are most often used for soaps and detergents. CMC acts as an inhibitor of the redeposition of grease in the fabric.

CMC reduces the consumption of printing ink on the paper as a result of the surface shine it gives. In addition, because it smooths the surface, CMC makes paper more resistant to grease and improves the union between fibers, thereby improving the color of the paper.

In pesticides and water-based sprays, CMC acts as a suspending agent. It also functions as glue to attach the insecticide to the leaves of plants after application. Carboxymethyl Cellulose is added to various compositions of glues and adhesives that are used for almost any material. CMC is widely used in the leather and wood industry.

CMC is used in toothpastes and gels. This water-soluble Ether serves as a thickener, stabilizer, suspending agent and former of films in creams, lotions, or shampoos, and is widely used in hair care products.

Carboxymethyl Cellulose is used in oil paints and varnishes. Carboxymethyl Cellulose acts as a thickener and suspends the pigment in the fluid. The main use of Carboxymethyl Cellulose in the plastics industry is to help increase the viscosity of plastics such as latex. Carboxymethyl Cellulose is also used in textile industry and in the manufacture of diapers and sanitary product.

Crude or purified CMC is used in drilling sludge as a colloid thickener and is applied when removing the drill from the hole to avoid sediments.

The most innovative applications of CMC are in the area of medicine. CMC solutions are used to form gels that are used in heart, thoracic and cornea surgery. CMC is used to coat tablets with high degrees of purity and low viscosity. CMC is insoluble in the acidic environment of the stomach but soluble in the basic medium of the intestine. CMC is also used for form gels, to transport the drug.

 

Handling and Storage:

Wash hands thoroughly after handling Carboxymethyl Cellulose. Avoid contact of CMC with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation of Carboxymethyl Cellulose.

Store CMC in a tightly closed container. Store Carboxymethyl Cellulose in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep Carboxymethyl Cellulose away from moisture.
