Thickener 1412, also known as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), is derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plant cell walls. It is produced by chemically modifying cellulose through a process that involves the reaction of cellulose with sodium monochloroacetate in an alkaline environment. This modification imparts thickening and emulsifying properties, making it widely used in food products, pharmaceuticals, and various industrial applications.
