In the washing product industry, sodium CMC is widely used as thickener and stabilizer due to its excellent chemical properties. It plays a crucial role in both liquid and powder detergents.
The increasingly popular mainstream product, detergent liquid.
At present, the proportion of detergent liquid in the market of detergent products is getting larger and larger, and it has become a mainstream product. The role of CMC in detergent liquid mainly lies in its properties of emulsification and protective colloids. The anions generated during the washing process can make the surfaces of both the laundry and the dirt particles negatively charged, so that the dirt particles remain suspended in the water phase.This causes repulsion between the dirt and the laundry surface (due to like charges repelling), which effectively prevents dirt from re-depositing on the laundry, keep white fabrics white, and colored fabrics bright.
The traditional product still widely used, detergent powder
Although the use of detergent liquid is increasing, detergent powder still occupies a large market share. As a relatively basic form of washing product, it is still favored by many consumers because it’s inexpensive and highly effective. Its formula contains a variety of chemicals, such as baking soda, Sodium dodecyl sulfonate, sodium silicate and detergent grade CMC, etc. Concentrated detergent powder is produced through processes such as pre-mixing, attaching, conditioning, drying, sieving. Among them, the addition ratio of CMC varies depending on the formulation, and is generally about 2%.
With the development of society, people’s demand for hygiene and cleanliness is becoming increasingly strong. Maintaining good clothing hygiene cannot be achieved without detergent products. Therefore, the demand for CMC is also increasing. Welcome to contact us for further consultation.
