Njengamanje, ubuchwepheshe bokuguqula i-cellulose bugxile kakhulu etherification kanye ne-esterification.I-Carboxymethylation uhlobo lobuchwepheshe be-etherification.I-Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) itholakala nge-carboxymethylation ye-cellulose, futhi isixazululo sayo esinamanzi sinemisebenzi yokuqina, ukwakheka kwefilimu, ukubopha, ukugcinwa komswakama, ukuvikelwa kwe-colloidal, i-emulsification kanye nokumiswa, futhi isetshenziswa kabanzi ekuwasheni, e-petroleum, ekudleni, nasemithi, izimboni zendwangu namaphepha nezinye.Ingenye ye-cellulose ethers ebaluleke kakhulu.
