Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) is a cellulose derivative used as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier in various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. It is synthesized by reacting cellulose with sodium chloroacetate, resulting in carboxymethyl substitution. NaCMC’s ability to form viscous solutions in water makes it valuable in enhancing texture and stability in products such as food emulsions, pharmaceutical formulations, and personal care items.
