NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. understands that the effectiveness of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) in textile applications hinges on selecting the correct grade. Different textile processes require specific properties from CMC, such as varying viscosity levels and degrees of substitution, to achieve optimal results.

For textile printing, a CMC grade that provides excellent thickening and stability is paramount. These grades typically offer a balanced viscosity that ensures precise application of printing pastes, leading to sharp patterns and vibrant colors. The goal here is to achieve a paste with good rheology that flows well but also holds its shape on the fabric.

When used as a warp sizing agent, CMC needs to impart strength and elasticity to the yarn to withstand weaving stresses. Therefore, higher viscosity grades of CMC are often preferred. These grades form a more robust film on the yarn, offering better protection against breakage and improving the efficiency of the weaving process. The improved film properties contribute to a smoother fabric surface and better handle.

In fabric finishing, the choice of CMC can influence the final texture, wrinkle resistance, and durability of the textile. Lower viscosity CMC grades might be suitable for certain finishing applications where a lighter touch is desired, while higher viscosity grades could provide more significant structural improvements. The specific application dictates whether the focus is on surface feel, crease recovery, or overall fabric strength.

NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers a comprehensive range of CMC products, each optimized for specific textile industry needs. Factors such as the type of fiber being processed (e.g., cotton, synthetics), the specific process (printing, sizing, dyeing, finishing), and the desired outcome all influence the selection of the appropriate CMC grade. Consulting with our technical team can help ensure that you choose the CMC grade that best meets your application requirements, leading to improved product quality and operational efficiency.
