Main Application fields of SELKIM CMC are Detergent Industry, Food Industry, Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical Industry, Manufacture of Welding Electrodes, Paper and Cardboard Industry, Ceramics and Earth Industry, Deep Well-Drilling Industry, Wall Paper Hanging, Carpet Base Sizing, Textile Industry, Paint Manufacture, Agriculture, Adhesives.
CMC in laundry detergents works to keep the removed soil suspended in the wash water so they don't redeposit onto cleaned fabrics. This prevents graying of fabrics. The addition of a small quantity of CMC to the built detergent system eliminates this undesirable effect.
Functions in Food as thickener, viscosifier, texturiser, water retention, gelling agent, Stabiliser+protective colloid, Cristallisation control, film forming, Foam stabilization and generation, Mouth feel enhancer.
Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical Industry; SELKIM CMC is used as a stabilizer, binder and thickener in tooth pates, shampoos, hand creams, creams, eyeshadows, shaving creams, make-up bases ; Tablet binders, Capsules, Syrups, Suspensions, Cream, Gels, Ointments.
Paint Manufacture; SELKIM CMC of medium and high viscosity is used as a thickener, disperser, binder and fluidity regulator in paint manufacture.
Drilling Industry; SELKIM CMC, is used as a filtrate-reducing agent for drilling mud which are poured into the drilling pipe while drilling wells. It is used as additive for the oil, gas, geothermal and water well drilling business. It decreases the water loss and improves rheological properties.
Textile; When used as a sizing, textile finishing substance, or a thickener in preparation of dyes to obtain clean-cut designs, SELKIM CMC yields superior results.
Ceramic and Earth Industry; SELKIM CMC is used as a suspending agent and a stabilizer for glazes for improving green strength of bodies, as a secondary binder for special products.
Auxiliary for the Building Industry;

SELKIM CMC is an excellent thickening material with good adhesion ability in different areas of building industry. And, it is an important component of mixed wall paper adhesives.

And SELKIM CMC has still many other fields of applications.
