High-Performance Additive for Paints and Coatings
In the modern coatings industry, product performance is not only determined by pigment quality or color range, but also by the precise selection of functional additives. Among these additives, Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) plays a critical role in controlling viscosity, improving brushability, ensuring even film formation, and extending the life span of coatings.
LANDU, leveraging years of experience in cellulose derivative manufacturing, proudly presents LANDERCOLL® Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose—a high-purity, paint-grade CMC that meets the exacting demands of professional and industrial applications.
Water-soluble cellulose ether derived from natural cellulose with enhanced hydrophilic properties.
β-D-glucose backbone modified with sodium carboxymethyl groups (-CH₂-COONa) for enhanced functionality.
Non-toxic and biodegradable, ensuring safety for both industry applications and environmental protection.
Fine white to light cream powder
Easily soluble in water
Maintains performance across moderate pH range
Non-toxic & biodegradable
When preparing water-based paints and emulsions, rheology management is one of the most challenging tasks. Too thin, and paint runs and splashes; too thick, and it becomes hard to apply, leading to uneven coverage. This is where LANDERCOLL® CMC shines.
Adjusts viscosity to match application requirements
Minimizes premature drying on brushes or rollers
Keeps pigments uniformly suspended, preventing settling
Contributes to smooth, defect-free coating surfaces
Discover how LANDERCOLL® CMC can enhance your coating formulations
LANDERCOLL® CMC delivers exceptional performance as a thickener, stabilizer, and binder across diverse industrial applications, providing reliable functionality and superior quality results.
Used as a thickener and water retention agent in tile adhesives, wall putty, and dry-mix mortars to improve workability, adhesion, and consistency.
Acts as an anti-redeposition agent and stabilizer, preventing dirt from redepositing on fabrics and maintaining product uniformity.
Provides thickening, stabilization, and smooth texture in shampoos, shower gels, toothpastes, and lotions.
Enhances paper strength, coating quality, and dye adhesion; used as a sizing and printing thickener.
Functions as a fluid-loss reducer and viscosity modifier, improving drilling mud stability and lubrication.
| Property | Industrial Benefit |
|---|---|
| High Viscosity Control | Precise rheological modification for optimal product performance |
| Water Retention | Extended working time and improved hydration in construction materials |
| Film Formation | Enhanced protective barriers and coating integrity |
| Suspension Stability | Prevents settling and separation in formulated products |
| Chemical Compatibility | Works effectively with various additives and active ingredients |
LANDERCOLL® CMC comes as a fine, free-flowing powder, making handling and mixing straightforward for factory or workshop settings. Slight variations in tone or texture may occur due to production variables but have no effect on performance.
When incorporated into water, the powder hydrates quickly to form smooth solutions. Its viscosity performance remains stable across a broad pH range, provided the formulation avoids extremes.
Compatible with many common paint-base materials including:
High compatibility with latex-based formulations
Excellent performance in acrylic systems
Water-reducible alkyd resin compatibility
Optimal dispersion and color stability
Discover our comprehensive range of specialty products and customization options
We offer standard 25 kg bag packaging for ease of transport and storage.
For large-scale manufacturing or specialized applications, LANDU can design custom packaging sizes, moisture-proof bags, or tailor volumes according to client requirements, ensuring convenience and efficiency in your production line.
The LANDERCOLL® range extends into other cellulose ethers, notably Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC)—a highly effective rheology modifier widely used in paints, offering:
By combining CMC and HEC, paint producers achieve optimal viscosity control across different temperature ranges and humidity conditions.
Comprehensive solutions and industry insights for optimal CMC implementation
While other rheology modifiers exist (e.g., xanthan gum, synthetic polymers), CMC offers a balance of natural origin, biodegradability, affordability, and multifunctionality. Synthetic options may deliver higher viscosity but at the expense of cost or environmental friendliness.
Plant-based cellulose
Environmentally safe
Affordable solution
Multiple benefits
Paint manufacturers face increasing demand for sustainable, low-VOC, and eco-conscious products. CMC, derived from renewable cellulose sources, aligns well with these trends:
Derived from plant cellulose
Fully biodegradable
Meets numerous environmental safety standards worldwide
Follow these proven methods for optimal performance and results
Mix the powder with a small quantity of water to avoid clumping before adding to the main batch.
Over-agitation during initial hydration can lead to lump formation.
Dissolution is effective at room temperature; avoid excessive heat.
For optimal performance, combine with dispersants and defoamers suited to your formulation.
Real-world success stories with LANDERCOLL® CMC
