Application

Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium Salt (n≈500) serves a versatile purpose across various industries due to its unique properties. Primarily, it is used for its ability to enhance viscosity and stabilize emulsions in formulations ranging from pharmaceuticals to food products. In pharmaceuticals, it acts as a suspending agent and excipient for tablets, facilitating better drug delivery and stability. It is also employed in oral and topical formulations to create gels, using its muco-adhesive properties for applications such as wound care, ostomy patches, and even dental products. In the food industry, it functions as a stabilizer and thickener, ensuring consistent texture and quality. Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose's utility extends to cosmetics and toiletries, where it serves as a thickening agent and stabilizer, as well as in industrial applications like drilling muds and detergents, where it acts as a soil-suspending agent and enhances the efficiency of products. Additionally, its role in encapsulating active ingredients provides protection and controlled release, contributing to its use in various delivery systems.
