At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we pride ourselves on supplying Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) with consistent and high-quality chemical properties that ensure superior performance across various applications. Understanding these properties is crucial for optimizing their use in industries ranging from detergents and papermaking to paints and textiles. The key chemical attributes of CMC include its viscosity, degree of substitution (DS), purity, and solubility.

Viscosity is a critical parameter, as CMC is widely used as a thickener. Our products offer a range of viscosities, from ultra-low to ultra-high, measured in centipoise (cps). For example, detergent grade CMC often exhibits viscosities that enhance stability and adhesion. The degree of substitution (DS) refers to the average number of carboxymethyl groups attached to each anhydroglucose unit in the cellulose chain. A higher DS generally leads to better solubility and reduced sensitivity to salt concentrations, which is important for many industrial processes. Purity levels, often exceeding 95% or even 99.5%, ensure that the CMC performs effectively without introducing unwanted impurities.

Solubility in cold or hot water is another fundamental property, allowing for easy incorporation into various formulations. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides detailed specifications for our CMC products, including typical values for loss on drying and pH, which further define their suitability for specific applications. For those interested in the precise chemical characteristics of CMC or seeking to purchase high-purity grades for their industrial needs, our team at NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is ready to assist.
