Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)
CMC is a water-soluble polymer widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, detergents, and paper industries. As a thickener, stabilizer, and binder, it improves texture in food products, enhances drug dissolution in tablets, and boosts viscosity in detergents and coatings. Its high water retention and film-forming properties also make it valuable in ceramics, textiles, and oil drilling applications.
