Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is a water-soluble, anionic derivative of cellulose, produced by the chemical modification of natural cellulose fibers. It is widely used as a thickening agent, stabilizer, emulsifier, and dispersing agent in a variety of industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, and paper. CMC is valued for its viscosity-enhancing properties and versatility, making it a crucial component in many formulations that require texture improvement, water retention, or stabilization.
