KimaCell® CMC FG4000 sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is widely used as daily chemical thickener, viscosity increasing and emulsifier, sizing agent, flocculant, etc. The performance and use of CMC Na mainly depend on its degree of substitution and viscosity. The sodium carboxymethyl cellulose of the polymer linear polymer is an anionic cellulose ether, which is soluble in water and has good stability. It is a potential cellulose ether variety in the domestic market in the next few years. CMC Na has excellent water solubility and simple preparation process. Now it has been industrialized.

KimaCell® CMC FG4000 sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as a new type of food colloid, not only has the health care function of lowering blood pressure and blood lipid, but also can improve the quality characteristics of food. Adding proper amount of CMC Na can improve the quality characteristics of frozen pig blood tofu. When the addition amount of CMC Na is 1.00 g/100 mL, the cooking loss of frozen pig blood tofu is low, and it has good texture characteristics, color difference and sensory quality. The role of CMC Na in the production of cold drinks and quick-frozen food is that it has good formability, is not easy to break, prevents ice crystals from forming, has a slippery feeling when touching, has good luster and is beautiful.
