Microcrystalline CelluloseCommonly used as an adsorbent, suspending agent, diluent, and disintegrant. It can be used not only in wet granulation but also in dry direct compression. It also has a certain lubricating and disintegrating effect, which is very useful in tablet preparation.

　　Microcrystalline cellulose is a white or off-white powder, odorless and tasteless. This product is insoluble in water, ethanol, acetone or toluene. This product is a powder made from hydrolyzed pure cotton fiber, and the cellulose content should be 97.0%~102.0% on a dry basis.

　　Dietary fiber is an ideal health food additive, and microcrystalline cellulose can be used as an important functional food base in the food industry

　　1. Maintain the stability of emulsification and foam

　　3.Microcrystalline CelluloseImprove the stability of liquids

　　4. Nutritional supplements and thickeners

　　Microcrystalline CelluloseIt is a purified and partially depolymerized cellulose, white, odorless and tasteless, and is a crystalline powder composed of porous particles. Microcrystalline cellulose, its main component is a linear polysaccharide linked by β-1,4-glucosidic bonds. The degree of polymerization is about 3000~10000 glucose molecules. In general plant fibers, microcrystalline cellulose accounts for about 73%, and the other 30% is amorphous cellulose.

　　Microcrystalline cellulose is commonly used as an adsorbent, suspending agent, diluent, and disintegrant. It can be used not only in wet granulation but also in dry direct compression. It also has a certain lubricating and disintegrating effect, which is very useful in tablet preparation.

　　Microcrystalline CelluloseAnother product is colloid (MCC colloid), which is made from MCC powder as raw material to form an aqueous solution with a certain concentration, and then made into a colloid through a special gelatinization device.

Microcrystalline cellulose colloid has the following characteristics:

　　It is a high-concentration, high-viscosity thixotropic colloid, but it is easy to flow as long as external force is applied, and it is scooped with a spoon without a tail. When its concentration is 3%, the colloid viscosity can reach 3000~5000 MPa·s. The colloid has good cold and heat stability, that is, the viscosity loss is small during the freezing and heating cycle.
