Main Application of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) in the industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC), (Synonyms: Carboxymethyl cellulose, Carboxy Methyl Cellulose, CMC, Sodium CMC, Na-CMC)

is a kind of cellulose which are most widely used food, personal care, detergent, mining flotation, paper making, oil drilling and Textile in the world because of its important properties, such as are high viscosity, water preservation, good acid resistance, and salt resistance. Carboxymethyl cellulose is commonly known as “the MSG of industry.”

The main application in the industry as follows:

For oil and gas drilling

  1. Adding the sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) into the slurry, it can help slurry to form a thin, strong and ow permeability filter cake in the well, to reduce water loss.
  2. Adding the sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) into the slurry, it can easy to release the gas in the slurry, and keep the debris in the pit quickly.
  3. The drilling slurry also has the existence of time same as other suspensions. after adding CMC to make it stable and to extend the lifespan.
  4. The slurry which containing Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) will little be affected by the mold, so there is no need preservatives additive and maintaining a high PH value.
  5. Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC)can anti-pollution of a variety of soluble salts in the pit as flushing fluid drilling.
  6. The slurry which Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) cellulose has very good stability, it still reduces water loss even the temperature is above 150 ℃. To choose which kinds of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can use in oil drilling should be based on the slurry type, the region, the depth, and other different conditions. High viscosity, the high degree of substitution of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) should use in the low slurry density. for the density of the slurry should use low viscosity, the high degree of substitution of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC).

    For the textile, textile printing, and dyeing industry

    as to sizing agent to CMC for cotton, silk, chemical fiber, blended and other strong materials.

For the paper industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can be used as a smoothing agent and sizing agent in the paper industry. 0.1% to 0.3% of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) add into the pulp can enhance 40% to 50% of the tensile strength and degree of compression fracture for the paper, increasing 4 to 5 times of kneading

For the daily chemical industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can use as dirt absorbent in the synthetic detergent. In the daily chemical industry, such as toothpaste, the glycerin solution of Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can be used in toothpaste for gum base.

For the ceramic industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) used as adhesives, plasticizers, suspending agent and fixing agent.

For the construction industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can improve water retention and the strength of the construction.

For the food industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can be used as the thickener in the ice cream, canned food, fast cooking food, the foam stabilizer in the beer, the thickener and binder in the processing of jam, syrup, sherbet, dessert, ice cream, drinks, etc.

For the Mining flotation Industry

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose(CMC) can be used in mining flotation to separate the metals and impurities as a high-purity, high-efficiency suspending agent.
