Product Description

Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is a natural polymer which is made from glucose units associated by a 1-4 beta glycosidic bond, its obtained from fibrous plant material, with molecular formula C14H26O11. It is produced by hydrolyzing cellulose to break it down into microcrystals, enhancing its texture and functionality. It is utilized as a texturizer, a fat substitute, an emulsifier, an extender, and a bulking agent in food production.

Production & Sourcing

Micro crystalline cellulose (MCC) is a refined, partially depolymerized cellulose produced by the acid hydrolysis of purified wood pulp or other plant materials. MCC is typically manufactured through a series of steps that involve pulping, bleaching, and treatment with concentrated mineral acids. The resulting material is then washed, dried, and milled into a fine powder.

The majority of MCC production takes place in industrialized countries, with the largest manufacturing facilities located in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Major producers of MCC include FMC Corporation, JRS Pharma, Sigachi Industries, DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences, and Asahi Kasei Corporation.

The primary raw material used for the production of MCC is cellulose, which is derived from plant sources such as wood pulp, cotton, or sugarcane bagasse. Wood pulp is the most commonly used source for MCC, with a high proportion of MCC being sourced from sustainable, certified forests. Some manufacturers also use recycled paper as a source of cellulose for MCC production.
