Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC)

We are a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC), widely used as a thickener, stabilizer, binder, and water-retention agent across multiple industries. Our CMC is processed under strict quality standards to ensure high purity, consistent viscosity, and superior performance in demanding applications.

Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is a derivative of natural cellulose produced by the reaction of cellulose with alkali and chloroacetic acid. It is an anionic, water-soluble polymer with a degree of substitution typically ranging from 0.6 to 0.95. The structure is based on a glucopyranose polymer chain, making it highly effective in enhancing viscosity, film formation, and suspension stability.

This product is available in granular, coarse, and fine powder forms, ranging from white to cream color, and is offered in various grades and viscosity levels to suit specific industrial requirements. Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose is manufactured under controlled conditions using cellulose, caustic soda, and monochloroacetic acid, ensuring excellent quality and performance consistency.

CMC is a non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless powder that is highly soluble in both hot and cold water, with faster dissolution in hot water. It exhibits excellent stability in hard water, alkaline and acidic conditions, and shows good resistance against microbial attack compared to many natural gums. However, certain multivalent metal ions may affect its solubility.

Our CMC (High Viscosity Grade) is widely used in oil drilling, food processing, pharmaceuticals, textiles, detergents, and construction industries. In oilfield applications, it acts as a high-performance drilling fluid additive, improving mud viscosity, filtration control, and wellbore stability. It helps in preventing wall collapse, reducing fluid loss, and increasing drilling efficiency, making it an essential component in modern drilling operations.

With excellent salt resistance and temperature stability, our CMC performs efficiently even in sea water and saturated brine conditions. We provide customized grades and packaging options to meet diverse industrial needs, ensuring reliable performance and cost-effective solutions for our clients.
