Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is a water-soluble cellulose ether obtained through the chemical modification of natural cellulose. It appears as a white or slightly yellow powder or granules and can be used as a thickener, water retention agent, binder, emulsifier, disintegrant, and carrier for biological products. It is widely applied in various fields such as food, daily chemicals, pharmaceuticals, petroleum, and dyeing.

pharmacy
In pharmaceuticals, CMC is used as a bond, film forming, disintegrating, suspension or suspension aid. CMC is a safe and reliable carrier.

Disintegrant
CMC is directly used as disintegrant, and about 70% CMC can also be reformulated to deal with the joint CMC. Due to the existence of crosslinking bonds, it is not easy to dissolve in water, but can absorb several times its own weight of water, swelling without dissolving, with good disintegration.

Film-forming agent
CMC as membrane material, can be used for skin grinding surgery, wound and traumatic wound. There is no significant difference between the membrane and gauze dressing in preventing wound infection, but it is obviously superior to gauze dressing in controlling wound tissue fluid exudation and rapid wound healing, and has the effect of reducing postoperative edema and wound irritation.
