Tabulose SC® 580
Tabulose SC® 580 has a viscosity in water at 1.2%: 72 – 168 cps. It is a product resulting from a co-processing of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC). In this process, the CMC turns the MCC, which is insoluble, into an ingredient dispersible in water. When the finished co-processed product is subjected to suitable agitation, it forms an opaque white gel with thixotropic nature. Tabulose SC-580 has the ability to suspend particles through the formation of a three-dimensional network and not just by increasing the viscosity. It is also stable over a wide temperature range, and with a pH between 3.5 and 11.0. This food stabilizer is very heat resistant and makes for a good thickener in food applications such as ice cream, marshmallows, mayonnaise, salad dressings and powder shakes.

- HIGHLIGHTS
TABULOSE SC® is a co-processed product composed of Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) and Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). The co-processing comprises the application of energy via an intensive uniformity of the ingredients involved, resulting in a product of unique performance and function. In the image below we can see the difference between a co-processed and a simple mix, both dispersed in water. To reach the maximum efficiency, TABULOSE SC® needs to be dissolved in a liquid phase, water or milk, thus being activated through the application of shear forces.
