Product Description:
Carboxymethyl cellulose is widely used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in various industries. In the food industry, it is added to products like ice cream, yogurt, and sauces to improve texture and prevent separation. It also acts as a binder in baked goods, enhancing moisture retention and shelf life.
In pharmaceuticals, it is utilized as a disintegrant in tablets, helping them break down quickly in the digestive system. It is also found in topical creams and ointments, providing a smooth consistency and improving application.
In the cosmetics industry, it is used in lotions, shampoos, and toothpaste to stabilize emulsions and enhance viscosity. Additionally, it is employed in detergents and cleaning products to prevent dirt from re-depositing onto surfaces.
In the paper and textile industries, it serves as a sizing agent, improving strength and printability. Its water-retention properties make it valuable in construction materials like cement and plaster, where it helps control setting time and workability.
Overall, carboxymethyl cellulose is a versatile additive with applications across multiple sectors due to its unique functional properties.
