What is Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)?
Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC), also known as cellulose gum, is a versatile, water-soluble food additive used as a thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying agent. Derived from plant cellulose, CMC is commonly found in food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products, where it enhances texture and consistency.
Uses & Applications:
🔹 Food & Beverage Industry – Used as a thickener, emulsifier, and moisture-retainer in sauces, ice creams, and dairy products.
🔹 Bakery & Confectionery – Improves dough elasticity, extends shelf life, and prevents sugar crystallization in icings and syrups.
🔹 Dairy & Plant-Based Alternatives – Prevents separation in milk substitutes, yogurts, and protein drinks.
🔹 Sauces & Dressings – Maintains a smooth and uniform texture, preventing ingredients from separating.
🔹 Pharmaceutical & Cosmetic Applications – Used in oral medicines, gels, creams, and toothpaste for consistency and suspension.
