cmc polymer is used as an additive to decrease water loss and mud-cake-thickness in mud drilling. in this study, the effect of cmc and cmc nanoparticles on water loss and mud-cake-thickness in mud drilling is investigated. cmc nanoparticles are made by using of ball milling and their size is measured by particle size analyzer. cmc and cmc nanoparticles which were prepared by hamilton batch mixe...

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) / starch (S) /Carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) composite films were prepared from PVA, three different loading of CMC and soluble starch aqueous suspensions by casting method in the presence of plasticize containing glycerol. The effects of the CMC addition on the some physical properties of the resulted blend films were investigated. Tensile tests demonstrated positive re...

This paper investigates the adsorption of different sized carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC) onto talc particles (adsorption isotherm, adsorption reversibility), its consequences on the particles properties (electrophoretic mobility and surface wetting) and its effect on their dispersion (settling coefficient). Throughout the paper, the properties of talc particles dispersed in CMC solution are co...

PURPOSE This study compared a new contact lens rewetting drop containing both carboxymethylcellulose and hyaluronic acid (CMC-HA) with a standard drop containing carboxymethylcellulose only (CMC). Symptoms of discomfort typical in lens wear and lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE) were assessed over a 3-month period in a diverse sample of contact lens wearers. METHODS Adapted daily-wear contact len...

New approach for preparation of CMC hydrogels was undertaken through reacting CMC with either malic, succinic or citric acid. Characteristics of the hydrogels, as monitored by the swelling behavior, FTIR, SEM, EDX, TEM and XRD were dependent on nature and concentration of the polycarboxylic acid, time and temperature of curing. The best practice achieved from these studies was harnessed to synt...

19 Cortex–muscle coherence (CMC) reflects coupling between magnetoencephalography (MEG) 20 and surface electromyography (sEMG), being strongest during isometric contraction, but absent, 21 for unknown reasons, in some individuals. 22 We used a novel non-magnetic high-density sEMG (HD-sEMG) electrode grid (36 mm x 12 23 mm; 60 electrodes separated by 3 mm) to study effects of sEMG recording site...

We present a matrix language compiler CMC which translates annotated MATLAB scripts into Fortran 90 programs. Distinguishing features of CMC include its applicability to programs with sparse matrix computations and its capability of source-level optimization in MATLAB language. Different from other existing similar translators, CMC has an ability to generate codes based on information on the sh...

Children with medical complexity (CMC) are an important group of children who have multifaceted clinical and functional needs that can be challenging to manage and treat in the current health care system. Although there is no standard definition of medical complexity, four cardinal domains characterize CMC: 1) chronic, severe health conditions; 2) substantial health service needs; 3) major func...

BACKGROUND Cellulose and its derivatives such as carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) have been employed as a biomaterial for their diverse applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery and other medical materials. Porosity of the scaffolds has advantages in their applications to tissue engineering such as more cell adhesion and migration leading to better tissue regeneration. After synthesis...
