Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose CMC Food Grade
Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) has set in food thickening, suspension, emulsion, stability, conformal, film forming, puffing, antisepsis, acid and health care and other functions, can replace guar gum, gelatin, AGAR, sodium alginate and pectin in the role of food production, is widely used in modern food industry, such as lactobacillus beverages, fruit milk, ice cream, fruit, Gelatin, jelly, bread, fillings, pancakes, cold products, solid drinks, condiments, biscuits, instant noodles, meat products, paste, biscuits, gluten free bread, gluten free pasta, etc. Used in food, can improve the taste, improve the grade and quality of products, but also prolong the shelf life.
CMC can provide excellent and stable milk protein dispersion and suspension stability required by Lactobacillus beverage under acidic conditions, and can effectively improve emulsion stability and protein resistance.
The F series provides high quality calcium dispersed and stable calcium fortified beverages, making it an ideal choice for a wide variety of calcium fortified or calcium-rich emulsified beverages.
CMC can effectively reduce the dehydration and shrinkage of food and prolong the shelf life of food. Can better control the size of crystals in frozen food, prevent oil and water stratification; When added to biscuits, CMC achieves crack resistance, enhances biscuit stability by improving its adhesive properties through better water absorption and retention.
The low and medium viscosity in the F series provides stable performance and effectively achieves customer requirements.
- F series Application area
Lactobacillus beverage, fruit milk, ice cream, shera, gelatine, fudge, jelly, bread, stuffing, pancakes, cold products, solid drinks, condiments, instant noodles, meat products, etc
CMC application
Dispersing stabilizer, thickening agent, water absorption agent, water retention agent, cracking agent, emulsifier, etc
