About carboxymethylcellulose calcium
Carboxymethylcellulose calcium (CMC-Ca) is a pharmaceutical-grade cellulose derivative serving as an effective disintegrant, binder, and stabilizing agent in supplement manufacturing. This white, odorless powder swells rapidly in aqueous environments, promoting tablet disintegration and active ingredient release. The calcium salt form offers superior stability compared to sodium CMC while providing additional calcium supplementation benefits. Ideal for tablet compression, controlled-release formulations, and suspension preparations requiring consistent viscosity control. Meeting USP/NF standards, CMC calcium ensures uniform drug release profiles and enhanced bioavailability in oral solid dosage forms. Its hygroscopic properties and film-forming capabilities make it essential for sustained-release and enteric-coated supplement applications.
