Method for Improving Reaction Speed of Carboxymethyl Cellulose and Preventing Deterioration

Method for Improving Reaction Speed of Carboxymethyl Cellulose and Preventing Deterioration

Ⅰ. How to improve the reaction speed of carboxymethyl cellulose?


With the advancement of science and technology and the development of society, people's demand for carboxymethyl cellulose is constantly increasing, which is a new challenge for manufacturers. They need to study new technologies for carboxymethyl cellulose to improve the product reaction speed.


1. There are many methods for pre-hydrolysis of carboxymethyl cellulose, and the principles are similar. Carboxymethyl cellulose is a product obtained by chemical reaction, which has an improving effect on the reaction of carboxymethyl cellulose.


2. Carboxymethyl cellulose pretreatment method, this method refers to the rapid reaction of the raw materials configured with carboxymethyl cellulose through the physical or chemical reaction mechanism, combined with the reaction conditions within the carboxymethyl cellulose itself.



Using the effects of different reactions, carboxymethyl cellulose thus increases the speed of the entire reaction.


The reaction speed of carboxymethyl cellulose will directly affect the production efficiency of the product, but when increasing the reaction speed, you should pay attention to choosing the method that suits you. The effect of carboxymethyl cellulose produced by different methods is also different.


Ⅱ. How to prevent the deterioration of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose?


We already know that conventional sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is significantly affected by temperature. If it is not a special grade of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, it is unstable in high temperature or high salt environments.


In addition, many users report that the solution of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose will become thinner after being placed for a period of time. In addition to the influence of various previous factors, the stability of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is also affected by bacterial microorganisms to a certain extent.


Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is modified with different substitution groups (alkyl or hydroxyalkyl), and its antimicrobial properties are improved.


Scientific research has found that the degree of substitution of water-soluble sodium carboxymethyl cellulose derivatives is an important reason for affecting enzyme resistance.


When the degree of substitution is higher than 1, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose has the ability to resist microbial corrosion, and the higher the degree of substitution, the better the uniformity, and the stronger the ability to resist microorganisms.



Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose with a high degree of substitution has a stronger antimicrobial ability and stronger anti-enzyme ability.


Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose in food is almost unchanged after being digested by the intestinal tract. It can be seen that sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is stable in biochemical and enzymatic systems, which has led to new guidance on the use of sodium carboxymethylcellulose in food.
