Properties:

CMC is made from natural cotton fibers or wood pulp, through etherification, purification and drying process to made anionic cellulose ether, and It is widely used in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry as thickener and stabilizer.

Our food grade CMC has good evenness, high viscosity(even higher than 2000 mPa.s),high degree of substitution(above 1.2),high purity(97%-99.5%), high acid resistance(AVR of Type FH9 above 0.9)and high saline resistance; Fast solution rate and the dissolved solution has good transparency and good flowability.
