Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a water-soluble polymer and one of the most widely used cellulose derivatives, with properties such as thickening, stabilization and film formation. In ceramic slip and glaze, CMC controls viscosity, keeps the suspension stable and prevents particle settling; the result is more uniform glaze application on the body and fewer surface defects. It is produced domestically in several grades that differ by viscosity and target industry, and beyond ceramics it is used in welding electrode coatings, drilling fluids, detergents and the pharmaceutical industry. The choice among grades depends on the customer's process and working conditions, and is confirmed on the customer's own sample in the company laboratory. Domestic supply means short delivery and no risk of import stoppage. A batch analysis certificate travels with every shipment.

Which grades suit my industry?
Grades are selected by the required viscosity and the target industry. Send your process details and working conditions, and the selection is confirmed on your own sample in the company laboratory.
What is the difference between CMC and formulated alternatives?
CMC is a well-established, widely used material for viscosity control and stabilization, and formulated alternatives are offered alongside it for specific process conditions. The choice between them depends on your process, and the technical team recommends the best option.
Do you send samples?
Yes, a free laboratory sample along with technical consultation is provided for testing and evaluation.
