CAS 9004-34-6 MCC Cellulose Gel E460 Microcrystalline Cellulose For Food And Beverage Industry

 

Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), also known as cellulose gel or E460, is a naturally occurring substance that is widely used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, food, and cosmetics. It is derived from cellulose, which is the main structural component of plant cell walls. MCC is a white, odorless, and tasteless powder with excellent binding, bulking, and stabilizing properties.

 

Description:

• Chemical Formula: (C6H10O5)n
• Molecular Weight: Variable, depending on the degree of polymerization
• Appearance: White, odorless powder
• Solubility: Insoluble in water and organic solvents

Data Sheet:

• Chemical Name: Microcrystalline cellulose
• E Number: E460
• CAS Number: 9004-34-6
• EINECS Number: 232-674-9
• HS Code: 3912.31.00

Features:

1. Excellent Binding and Bulking Agent: MCC has high binding capacity, making it useful as a binder in the formulation of tablets and pellets in the pharmaceutical industry. It also acts as a bulking agent, providing volume and improving the flow properties of powders.
2. Stabilizer and Texture Modifier: It functions as a stabilizer and texture modifier in various food and beverage products, enhancing their texture, mouthfeel, and stability.
3. Inert and Non-Toxic: MCC is considered safe for consumption and has no known adverse effects. It passes through the gastrointestinal tract without being absorbed by the body.
4. Low Caloric Value: It has a low caloric value and is often used in low-calorie or reduced-fat food products.
5. High Absorption Capacity: MCC has the ability to absorb water and other liquids, making it useful in applications where moisture control is important, such as in pharmaceutical formulations.

Applications:

1. Pharmaceuticals: Microcrystalline cellulose is widely used as an excipient in the pharmaceutical industry to improve the compressibility and disintegration properties of tablets and as a suspending agent in liquid formulations.
2. Food and Beverage Industry: It is used as a texturizer, stabilizer, and bulking agent in various food products, including baked goods, dairy products, sauces, dressings, and beverages.
3. Cosmetics and Personal Care: MCC is utilized in cosmetics and personal care products, such as creams, lotions, and powders, to improve texture, stability, and absorbency.
4. Other Applications: It can also be found in other applications, such as in the production of paper, coatings, paints, and as an anti-caking agent.
