What Is LANDERCOLL CMC

Carboxymethyl Cellulose for Thickening, Stabilization, Binding, and Texture Control

LANDERCOLL CMC is a versatile carboxymethyl cellulose product designed for manufacturers who need reliable thickening, stabilization, binding, suspension control, water management, texture improvement, and formulation consistency across a broad range of industries and application systems.

As a water-soluble, anionic cellulose derivative, CMC is especially valuable in food and nutrition systems, detergents and home care, toothpaste and personal care, pharmaceuticals, ceramics, oilfield fluids, paper and pulp, textile printing, adhesives, and other industrial formulations. It is particularly well-suited for applications where viscosity, structure, particle suspension, anti-redeposition, water binding, or texture stability are important performance requirements.

Different industries require different CMC grades. The right selection depends on viscosity level, degree of substitution, purity specification, dissolution behavior, salt tolerance, pH environment, regulatory requirements, and final product performance target. LANDERCOLL supports customers with application-based product selection, grade matching, and practical technical communication.

What Is CMC?
Definicja, chemia i rola przemysłowa

CMC stands for Carboxymethyl Cellulose. In commercial and industrial applications, it is most commonly supplied as Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (Na-CMC) — a water-soluble, anionic cellulose derivative produced by introducing carboxymethyl groups (–CH₂COONa) onto the cellulose backbone. Its CAS number is 9004-32-4.

In food-related applications, CMC is commonly referred to as cellulose gum and is listed as food additive E466 in the EU food additive database under the name sodium carboxymethyl cellulose / cellulose gum. Food use requires the correct compliant grade and adherence to the regulations of the target market.

CMC is produced by reacting purified natural cellulose — typically derived from wood pulp or cotton linter — with sodium monochloroacetate under controlled alkaline conditions. This reaction introduces carboxymethyl groups onto the cellulose backbone, converting the insoluble natural polymer into a water-soluble, anionic polyelectrolyte.

Key Chemical Parameters

Stopień zastąpienia (DS)

Average number of carboxymethyl groups per glucose unit, typically ranging from 0.4 to 1.5. Higher DS generally improves water solubility, salt tolerance, and clarity of solution. DS directly affects performance in food, oilfield, and industrial applications.

Klasa lepkości

Measured at 1% or 2% aqueous solution, ranging from very low (below 50 mPa·s) to very high viscosity (above 10,000 mPa·s), depending on molecular weight and concentration.

Purity Level

The sodium chloride and sodium glycolate content varies by grade. High-purity grades (typically >99% active content) are required for food, pharmaceutical, and personal care applications. Technical grades are used in ceramics, oilfield, paper, textile, and industrial systems.

How CMC Differs from Non-ionic Cellulose Ethers

Unlike HPMC, HEMC/MHEC, and HEC — which are non-ionic — CMC is an anionic cellulose derivative carrying a negative charge in solution. It is sensitive to multivalent cations (Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺) and high salt concentrations, which can reduce its viscosity and solubility. It provides anti-redeposition performance in detergent systems through electrostatic interaction with fabric surfaces, and can interact with positively charged ingredients in formulations.

CMC is generally more cost-effective than non-ionic cellulose ethers for many industrial applications. Understanding CMC's anionic nature is critical for formulation compatibility assessment, particularly in high-electrolyte systems.

CMC dissolves in water to form a viscous, pseudoplastic solution — viscosity decreases under shear during mixing and application, and recovers at rest. Because CMC is anionic, its viscosity is more sensitive to salt and multivalent cation content than non-ionic cellulose ethers.

One of the most important functions of CMC in laundry detergent systems. CMC adsorbs onto fabric surfaces — particularly cotton and cellulosic fibers — creating a protective barrier that repels soil particles through electrostatic and steric effects, keeping removed soil suspended in wash water rather than redepositing on clean fabric.

  • Effective on cotton and cellulosic fiber surfaces
  • Decades of established detergent industry use
  • Cost-effective anti-redeposition performance

CMC for Detergents
and Home Care

CMC is an important functional additive in detergent formulations, particularly laundry detergent systems. Its primary role is anti-redeposition — preventing soil and dirt particles that have been removed from fabrics from redepositing onto fabric surfaces during the wash cycle.

CMC achieves anti-redeposition by adsorbing onto fabric surfaces — particularly cotton and cellulosic fibers — creating a protective barrier that repels soil particles through electrostatic and steric effects. CMC has been used for this purpose in laundry detergent formulations for decades and remains one of the most cost-effective anti-redeposition agents available.

For Food, Toothpaste & Detergents

CMC (E466 / Carmellose Sodium) is the established standard for food stabilization, texture, anti-redeposition in laundry detergents, and toothpaste binding. Generally more cost-effective than HPMC for these applications. CMC's anionic nature provides the electrostatic interaction with fabric surfaces that drives anti-redeposition performance.

For Ceramics & Oilfield

CMC is the most commonly used cellulose derivative in ceramics and oilfield applications due to its cost-effectiveness, reliable performance at suitable technical grades, and availability in grades matched to each industry's requirements. Clean burnout in ceramics and reliable fluid-loss control in oilfield systems.

For Construction & Paints

For drymix construction materials, HPMC and HEMC/MHEC are more commonly selected due to stronger water retention in cement and gypsum systems. For water-based paints and latex coatings, HEC is preferred due to its strong latex compatibility and absence of thermal gelation.

FAQ

Często zadawane pytania
About CMC

What is CMC used for?

CMC (CAS 9004-32-4) is used as a thickener, stabilizer, binder, suspending agent, water-retention agent, protective colloid, texture modifier, and anti-redeposition aid. Widely used in food systems (as E466 / cellulose gum), laundry detergents, toothpaste, pharmaceuticals, ceramics, oilfield drilling fluids, paper, textile printing, adhesives, inks, and specialty industrial systems.

What is the CAS number of CMC?

The commonly used CAS number for sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is 9004-32-4.

Czy CMC to to samo co guma celulozowa?

Yes. In food-related applications, CMC is commonly referred to as cellulose gum. Suitable food-grade CMC is also known as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and is listed as food additive E466 in the EU food additive system. The terms CMC, cellulose gum, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose all refer to the same substance when used in food contexts.

Is CMC a food additive?

Yes. Suitable food-grade CMC is approved as food additive E466 in the European Union and is recognized in food regulations in many other markets globally. Food use requires the correct compliant grade that meets applicable purity specifications and food safety standards. Compliance with the specific food regulations of the target market is required.
