Description
This product is a crosslinked polymer of sodium carboxymethylcellulose, which is a crosslinked, partially carboxymethylated sodium cellulose salt. Used as a disintegrating agent for capsules, tablets and granules in oral dosage forms.
The largest use of Croscarmellose Sodium is to compound soap and synthetic detergent, add about 1% of Croscarmellose Sodium in the heavy cleaner, to prevent the dirt washed out reprecipitating on the fabric. Secondly, Croscarmellose Sodium is used as suspension stabilizer of drilling fluid in petroleum industry.
Application
1. In the detergent, Croscarmellose Sodium is used as dirt redeposition resistance agent, especially for hydrophobic synthetic fabrics, the dirt redeposition resistance effect is great.
2. Used in oil and gas drilling, sink well and other projects, in oil drilling, Croscarmellose Sodium can be used as suspension stabilizer and water-retaining agent to protect oil well. Generally, the dosage is 2.3 t for shallow well, 5.6 t for deep well.
3. In textile industry, Croscarmellose Sodium is used as thickening agent of sizing agent and dyeing agent, to improve the solubility and viscosity of sizing agent, is easy for the textile printing and hard finishing.
