Specifically, the present invention relates to a pulverized carboxymethylated pulp having a specific carboxymethyl substitution degree and a crystallinity degree of cellulose type I, and an additive containing the same.
- the carboxymethylated pulp is obtained by ether-bonding a carboxymethyl group to a part of the hydroxyl group in the glucose residue of cellulose constituting the pulp.
- Carboxymethylated cellulose is used as various additives such as thickeners, binders, binders, water-absorbing materials, water-retaining materials, and emulsion stabilizers in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, foods, and various industrial products. Since carboxymethylated cellulose is derived from natural cellulose, it is an environmentally friendly material that has gentle biodegradability and can be discarded by incineration, and its use is expected to expand in the future.
- carboxymethylated cellulose As a method for producing carboxymethylated cellulose, generally, cellulose is treated with alkali (mercelization) and then treated with an etherifying agent (also referred to as carboxymethylating agent) (carboxymethylated, also referred to as etherification).
- etherifying agent also referred to as carboxymethylating agent
- carboxymethylating agent carboxymethylated
- a method is known in which both mercerization and carboxymethylation are carried out using water as a solvent, and both mercerization and carboxymethylation are carried out in a solvent mainly composed of an organic solvent (Patent Documents 1 to 4).
- the former is called the “water medium method” and the latter is called the “solvent method”.
- carboxymethylated cellulose is fibrillated to the nano order to form cellulose nanofibers.
- carboxymethylated cellulose (carboxymethyl substitution degree of 0.01 to 0.30) is fibrillated so that the average fiber diameter is 3 to 500 nm and the aspect ratio is 100 or more.
- Methylated cellulose fibers are described.

Searches for new uses that utilize features such as shape and crystallinity are being conducted.
- carboxymethylated cellulose having a degree of carboxymethyl substitution of 0.50 or less and a cellulose I type crystallinity of 50% or more tends to be heterogeneous, for example, dispersion becomes unstable, There were problems such as easy formation of lumps. This is because the carboxymethyl group is locally introduced into the cellulose, so that a part of the carboxymethylated cellulose that locally dissolves in water and a part that does not dissolve in water are produced. It was estimated that dispersion was unstable depending on the state of introduction. Such a phenomenon was particularly remarkable when the degree of carboxymethyl substitution was low.
- the cellulose nanofiber as described in Patent Document 5 is very fine, it may be difficult to use depending on the application.
- the amount is small, problems such as easily passing through the wire and poor yield, and difficult paper strength may occur. If so, the water retention becomes too high, and there is a possibility that problems such as poor drainage of the pulp slurry at the time of paper making and high cost may occur.
