Features: 1) Name of commodity: Microcrystalline Cellulose 2) CAS no.: 9004-34-6 3) Specifications: CP2005 4) Applications: Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) has been widely used as an additive for direct compression because of its good flowability, compactibility, and compressibility. MCC is usually manufactured by the following process: wood pulp made of needle-leaf trees or return pulp made of cotton-seed fiber is partially hydrolyzed and washed after removing the amorphous region and impurities to purify the MCC. Therefore, it has been indicated that differences in the properties of MCC among manufacturers are due to the kinds of pulp used as a raw material and their manufacturing conditions. These differences can affect the compactibility and compressibility of the MCC
