(crosslinked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose)
A: Crosslinked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is a modified polymer derived from cellulose. It is chemically treated to form a stable, water-absorbent network structure. This crosslinking enhances its durability and swelling properties for specialized applications.
A: It is commonly used as a disintegrant in tablets to promote rapid breakdown. Its crosslinked structure allows controlled water absorption and swelling. This ensures consistent drug release and improved bioavailability.
A: Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. It acts as a thickener, stabilizer, or binder in products like ice cream and lotions. Crosslinked variants are preferred for sustained-release formulations.
A: Crosslinking provides superior mechanical strength and resistance to dissolution. It maintains structural integrity under high moisture or pressure conditions. This makes it ideal for extended-release medications or wound dressings.
A: Yes, it is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for topical and oral use. Its non-toxic, biocompatible nature suits creams and wound care products. Always verify purity grades for specific regulatory compliance.
