Carboxymethyl tamarind kernel powder (CMTKP) is a modified form of tamarind kernel powder, which itself is derived from the seeds of the tamarind tree, a plant native to Africa but extensively cultivated in India. CMTKP is produced through a chemical process that involves the etherification of tamarind kernel powder with chloroacetic acid, resulting in a derivative with enhanced properties such as increased solubility in water and improved viscosity. This modified powder is widely recognized for its application across various industries. In the textile industry, it serves as a thickener in fabric dyes, enhancing the sharpness and durability of printed patterns. The food industry values CMTKP for its thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying properties, making it a versatile ingredient in products like sauces, ice creams, and baked goods. Additionally, its application in the pharmaceutical sector includes its use as a binder and disintegrant in tablet formulations, improving the release of the active pharmaceutical ingredients.
