I tenei wa, ko te hangarau whakarereke o te cellulose e aro nui ana ki te etherification me te esterification.Ko te Carboxymethylation he momo hangarau etherification.Ko te Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) ka whiwhihia e te carboxymethylation o te cellulose, a ko tana otinga wai nga mahi o te matotoru, te hanga kiriata, te honohono, te pupuri i te makuku, te whakamarumaru colloidal, te emulsification me te whakatārewatanga, ka whakamahia nuitia ki te horoi, te hinu, te kai, te rongoa, kakano me te pepa me etahi atu ahumahi.Koia tetahi o nga ethers cellulose tino nui.
