Microcrystalline cellulose CAS9004-34-6  is a purified, partially depolymerized cellulose, white, odorless, tasteless, crystalline powder composed of porous particles. Microcrystalline cellulose is widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food, with different particle sizes and water contents having different characteristics and application ranges. Microcrystalline Cellulose, mainly composed of β- A straight chain polysaccharide substance that is bound to 1,4-glucoside bonds. The degree of polymerization is approximately 3000-10000 glucose molecules. In general plant fibers, microcrystalline cellulose accounts for about 73%, while the other 30% is amorphous cellulose.
