Introduction:

Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is an anionic water-soluble polymer based on renewable cellulosic raw material. Our WGCEL CMC widely used in toothpaste manufactures. 

Key Functions:

Thickening Agent: Provides optimal viscosity and gel structure to maintain paste consistency.

Stabilizer: Prevents phase separation and ensures uniform dispersion of solid and liquid ingredients.

Binder: Keeps abrasive particles (like silica, calcium carbonate) evenly suspended.

Improves Texture: Gives a smooth, pleasant mouthfeel and easy extrusion from the tube.

Moisture Retention: Helps retain moisture and prevents drying or hardening in the tube.

Advantages:

Safe and Non-toxic: Complies with international hygiene standards for oral care products.

Compatible with Actives: Works well with fluoride, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and abrasives.

Excellent Rheology: Ensures shear-thinning properties for easy brushing.

Stable Performance: Maintains performance across a wide pH range and during shelf life.

Typical Applications:

Fluoridated Toothpaste

Herbal or Natural Toothpaste

Whitening Toothpaste

Gel and Paste-based formulations

Kids' Toothpaste (with lower abrasivity)

Packing and Storage:
