Carboxy Methyl Starch (CMS) is non-toxic, odorless, easily soluble in water, and forms a transparent liquid. Carboxymethyl starch (CMS) is an important modified starch with unique properties due to the presence of negatively charged functional groups. CMS is widely used in various industries due to its improved solubility, thickening, and stabilizing properties compared to native starch. We provide customers with high-quality CMS to meet their various application needs. We can also customize the product you want according to your specific requirements for substitution degree and viscosity. Carboxymethyl starch is a highly effective additive that can be used to improve product and processing characteristics in various fields.
