High Dissolubility Granule CMC Carboxymethyl Cellulose E466
Sodium CMC is used in food science as a viscosity modifier or thickener, and to stabilize emulsions in various products including ice cream. As a food additive, Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose has E number E466. CMC Polymer is also a constituent of many non-food products, such as K-Y Jelly, toothpaste, laxatives, water-based paints, detergents, textile sizing and various paper products. Carboxymethyl Cellulose is used primarily because it has high viscosity, is non-toxic, and is hypoallergenic.
