pharmaceutical grade CMC
1.Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) for Pharmaceutical Industry
Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose for Pharmaceutical Industry.Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose is widely used in Pharmaceutical Industry. If added Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose into medicine table or gain as adhesive and disintegrant, the medicine will be easily processed into some shape and it is the medicines to digestion and absorption, Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose can also be used in ointment as dispersant and humectant, and in some syrup, etc., used as suspending agent, emulsifier, stabilizer and so on.If added Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose into medicine table or gain as adhesive and disintegrant, the medicine will be easily processed into some shape and it is the medicines to digestion and absorption, Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose can also be used in ointment as dispersant and humectant, and in some syrup, etc., used as suspending agent, emulsifier, stabilizer and so on.

5.Properties
1. Thickening: CMC can produce high viscosity at low concentration. It also acts as lubricant.
2. Water retention: CMC is a water binder, helps increase shelf life of food.
3. Suspending aid: CMC acts as emulsifier and suspension stabilizer, particularly in icings to control ice crystal size.
4. Film forming: CMC can produce a film on the surface of fried food, eg. instant noodle, and prevent absorption of excessive vegetable oil.
5. Chemical stability: CMC is resistant to heat, light, mold and commonly used chemicals.
