Overview:
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a major constituent of non-consumable food items such as toothpaste, diet pills, and laxatives. Moreover, water-based paints, reusable heat packs, detergents, and paper processing require substantial amounts of carboxymethyl cellulose. CMC or cellulose gum is a cellulose derivative with carboxymethyl groups attached to the hydroxyl groups of glucopyranose monomers. The product is generally used as its sodium salt. The major applications of CMC are in paper processing, cosmetics, food & beverage, and personal care, among others. In the foods & beverage industry, CMC is mainly used as a viscosity modifier, thickener, and emulsifier. The product is also used in fat-free food products.
By application, the market has been categorized into, food & beverage, cosmetics and personal care, pharmaceuticals, paper processing, oil & gas, paints and coatings, detergents, and others. The food & beverage segment is expected to be the largest. The product is widely used in making ice cream, baked goods, and chewing gum to improve the flavor, texture, and quality of the product. Furthermore, surging demand for processed food is likely to boost the growth of the carboxymethyl cellulose market during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023.
