Tylose

A cellulose derivative with carboxymethyl groups attached to some hydroxyl groups of glucopyranose monomers is carboxymethyl cellulose under the trade name Tylose.

Production:

It is synthesized by alkaline catalyzed reaction of cellulose with chloroacetic acid. After the initial reaction, the resulting mixture also produces 60% and 40% salt.

Applications of Tylose:

This compound is non-toxic and has a high viscosity, which is why it use in a wide range of industries, which we will examine further.

Tylose in Food industry:

It a viscosity modifier or thickener use to stabilize emulsions in products such as ice cream, bread, and cakes. They use it in gluten-free food products to reduce fat. It also use as an emulsifier in biscuits, candy, chewing gum, margarine and peanut butter.

medical:

This substance use in ophthalmology as a lubricant in artificial tears to treat dry eyes. Also, in veterinary medicine, it use in abdominal surgeries of large animals in order to prevent intestinal adhesions.

Other uses:

It use in detergents such as laundry detergents, compounds such as toothpaste, diet pills, water-based paints, detergents, and crafts. It also use as a thickening agent in the oil drilling industry and as a component of drilling mud.

Conclusion:

Carboxymethylcellulose is the same as Tylose, which use in a wide range of industries as a stabilizer and emulsifier. This material is widely use in the food industry, especially in the preparation of ice cream.
