SidleyCel® CMC has benefits like good acid resistance, salt tolerance, high transparency, less free cellulose and gel particles, fast dissolution and good fluidity.
- CMC can prevent the protein in yoghurt from coagulating and delamination.
- CMC can make water, fat and protein well mixed, dispersed and emulsified in ice cream, avoid ice crystals, improve taste and keep uniformity of final products.
- CMC can ensure the stability of acid drinks and extend its shelf life due to its good degree of substitution.
- CMC itself has no calorific value and is a good choice for manufacturing low-calorie foods.
