CMC cellulose is a kind of gum which is commonly used as thickener .Melting point 300 centigrade

CMC cellulose is a kind of gum which is commonly used as thickener. It could improve the viscosity and the suspension of the products. When added into ice-cream, CMC could enhance the water-retaining and the structure to avoid crystallization. And it could also makes beverage taste more smoothly.

Among the various kinds of cellulose, CMC cellulose is the most widely used one. With lower price, outstay and outstanding effect and reliable safety and quality, it could obviously reduce cost and increase the competitiveness of the products.

Structure

CMC cellulose is a gummy with viscosity, stability and is easy to form films. It is a well workable and safe food additive. But due to the different conditions for different applications, it is necessary to choose CMC with appropriate viscosity and degree of substitution.
