CMC Detergent Grade 25kg
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a water-soluble polymer that is derived from cellulose, which is a naturally occurring polymer found in plant cell walls. CMC is produced by chemically modifying cellulose through the addition of carboxymethyl groups, which gives it its unique properties such as high water solubility, thickening ability, and film-forming properties.
CMC is widely used in a variety of industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and textiles, as a thickener, binder, stabilizer, emulsifier, and dispersant. It is commonly found in food products such as ice cream, salad dressings, and baked goods as a thickener and emulsifier, as well as in cosmetics and personal care products such as toothpaste and shampoo as a binder and stabilizer.

Sodium Hydroxide Pearls are small, solid beads of sodium hydroxide, a strong alkaline compound. They are commonly used in industrial applications, including cleaning, pH regulation, and chemical synthesis. The pearls dissolve easily in water, forming a highly caustic solution that can handle a variety of tasks, from de-greasing surfaces to adjusting the acidity of solutions. They require careful handling due to their corrosive nature and can cause severe chemical burns if not used properly.
Sodium silicate 20litres
Sodium silicate, commonly known as water glass or liquid glass, is a compound containing sodium oxide (NaāO) and silica (SiOā). It is typically represented by the formula Na2SiO3text{Na}_2text{SiO}_3, but it can vary, forming a range of compositions depending on the ratio of sodium oxide to silica.
Properties
- Physical State: It is usually found in a glassy, crystalline solid form or as a thick, syrupy liquid.
- Appearance: Colorless to light brown.
- Solubility: Highly soluble in water, forming a viscous solution.
- pH: Alkaline, typically around 11-12.
Production
Sodium silicate is produced by fusing sodium carbonate (soda ash) and silica sand at high temperatures. The general reaction is: Na2CO3+SiO2āNa2SiO3+CO2text{Na}_2text{CO}_3 + text{SiO}_2 rightarrow text{Na}_2text{SiO}_3 + text{CO}_2
