Abstracts

Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) is made from high-grade, purified wood cellulose. Hydrolysis is used to remove cellulose until the microcrystalline form remains. With its amorphous cellulose portions removed, it becomes an inert, white, free-flowing powder. It can be processed in a number of ways, through reactive extrusion, steam explosion, and acid hydrolysis. Main markets are in pharmaceuticals, food additives and cosmetics.

The major sources of MCC are wood pulp and cotton fiber. Recently, other non-woody biomass, such as soybean, corn stalk, oath and rice hulls, as well as sugar beet pulp, bagasse and maize cob, wheat, barley and oath straw, groundnut shell and rice husks, reed stalks and cereal straw, have been increasingly used.
