About Aqualon Cellulose Gum

Aqualon Cellulose Gum

Chemistry: Cellulosics

Aqualon cellulose gum, or sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC),is widely used as an economical thickener and stabilizer in foods and beverages. Besides modifying the behavior of water, cellulose gum is useful in suspending solids and modifying the flow and texture. Aqualon cellulose gum has the ability to form strong, oil-resistant films. In beverage concentrates(alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and powdered drink mixes, cellulose gum add spleasant, clean mouthfeel.

The anionic nature of CMC allows it to interact with the positive charges found on protein in acidic conditions, thus making it an excellent stabilizer for low-pH dairy beverages. CMC is also used in ice cream to control meltdown, add texture and protect against heat shock. High-viscosity grades of CMC are efficient thickeners and have a great ability to control and hold water.
