The paper industry continuously seeks innovative solutions to enhance paper quality, production efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) stands out as a versatile and highly effective additive, playing a crucial role in various papermaking processes. As a specialized manufacturer and supplier of industrial chemicals, we understand the demands of the paper sector and offer high-quality CMC solutions to meet these needs.

CMC as a Sizing and Smoothing Agent in Paper Production

In papermaking, CMC is primarily employed as both a sizing agent and a smoothing agent. Its unique properties contribute to significant improvements in the final paper product:

  • Enhanced Tensile Strength: When added to the pulp, even in small concentrations (0.1% to 0.3%), CMC can boost the tensile strength of the paper by 40% to 50%. This results in stronger, more durable paper products.
  • Improved Printability and Surface Properties: As a smoothing agent, CMC improves the surface characteristics of the paper, leading to better ink holdout and enhanced printability. This is particularly important for high-quality printing and packaging applications.
  • Increased Resistance: CMC also contributes to a higher resistance to kneading and tearing, further enhancing the overall quality and longevity of the paper.
  • Water Retention: Its water-retaining properties help in better formation of the paper sheet, leading to a more uniform and consistent product.
