Carboxymethyl Cellulose (Acid Form, CAS 9000-11-7) is an anionic cellulose ether produced by carboxymethylation of natural cellulose. The acid form of CMC appears as a white to off-white powder and is practically insoluble in water, but it can swell or dissolve under alkaline conditions to form CMC salts. It is widely used as a key raw material for the production of sodium CMC and other derivatives, and serves in papermaking, ceramics, textile sizing, and biodegradable material modification. The product is non-toxic, chemically stable, and suitable for a variety of industrial processes.
1. Used as a raw material in chemical synthesis
Used in the preparation of CMC sodium salt, CMC potassium salt, and CMC amine salt
Used as an intermediate in nucleophilic substitution reactions in certain reactions
2. Paper industry
Used as a surface sizing and sizing agent additive (requires prior alkalization to convert to water-soluble form)
3. Textile industry
Used as a sizing raw material (usually used after alkalization)
Dyeing process aid
4. Ceramic industry
Used as a plasticity enhancer for ceramic green bodies (used after alkalization)
Binder precursor
5. Bio-based materials field
Can be used for matrix modification of biodegradable materials
6. As a raw material for resin and adhesive modification
Used as a precursor in the preparation of certain water-soluble polymers
Used as a structural modifier in resin synthesis
Safety Considerations
Non-toxic
Low irritation to skin and eyes
Dust may cause mild mechanical irritation or coughing
Decomposition at high temperatures may produce irritating fumes (such as CO, CO₂)
Hazard Classification
Non-hazardous chemical
Not flammable, but dust may pose a risk of combustion under extreme conditions.
Personal Protection
Wear a dust mask during industrial operations.
Store in a sealed container to prevent dust dispersion.
Wear goggles and gloves if necessary.
Spill Handling
Collect with a broom or vacuum cleaner.
Prevent dust dispersion.
Do not rinse directly with water (it will expand).
