Qingdao ACTA Biotechnology’s High-Quality Carboxymethyl Cellulose Gel: A User-Friendly Guide to Innovation

1. Introduction to Carboxymethyl Cellulose Gel

Carboxymethyl Cellulose Gel, also known as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CAS: 9004-32-4), is a water-soluble plant-based ingredient. It’s made by modifying cellulose through a special chemical process. What makes it special? Its molecular structure includes tiny groups called carboxymethyl groups (–CH₂COONa), which give CMC Gel amazing control over thickness, texture, and stability. Because of this, it’s widely used in industries like food, medicine, and cosmetics.

Why does CMC Gel matter?

The global CMC market is worth $2.1 billion (2023), according to Grand View Research.
Here’s the key point: Qingdao ACTA Biotechnology produces CMC Gel with 99.5% purity, which is purer than most products on the market.

Feature	Details	How We Test It
Thickness (Viscosity)	Ranges from thin (1,000 mPa·s) to thick (15,000 mPa·s) in water	Measured with a Brookfield Viscometer (ASTM D2196)
Carboxymethyl Groups (DS)	0.7–0.95 groups per cellulose molecule	Tested via Titration (ASTM D1439)
Particle Size	20–200 micrometers (adjustable)	Measured with a Laser (Malvern Mastersizer 3000)
pH Level	Works best between 6.5–8.0 (mildly alkaline)	Checked using a pH Meter (Mettler Toledo)

In simple terms, CMC Gel can be thin like water or thick like honey, depending on how it’s made.

2.2 Purity & Safety

Safety is a top priority:

Heavy Metals: Lead (Pb) <10 ppm, Arsenic (As) <3 ppm (tested with advanced instruments).
Germs: Less than 1,000 bacteria per gram (USP <61 standards).
Shelf Life: Lasts 3 years if stored cool (proven in aging tests).

3. How ACTA Makes cellulose Gel Consistently Great

3.1 Factory & Equipment

Production Capacity: 8,000 tons per year (growing to 12,000 tons by 2026).
Facilities:
