What Is Carboxymethyl Starch (CMS) for Textile Printing?
What Is Carboxymethyl Starch (CMS)?
Carboxymethyl starch, commonly called CMS, is a modified starch thickener used in textile printing paste and other industrial formulations. In fabric printing, CMS helps build viscosity, paste body and controlled flow so the printing paste can be prepared and applied according to the required process.
Why CMS Is Used in Textile Printing Paste
CMS thickener can be selected for reactive, disperse and specialty textile printing routes. Buyers normally evaluate paste preparation, rheology, screen performance, print definition, wash-off and cost-performance under their own fabric, dye system, machine and production conditions.
How Buyers Compare CMS Grades Before Bulk Purchase
CMS grades should be compared under the same test concentration, temperature, instrument and viscosity method. FSX Chemical supplies CN-R for reactive printing, FS-05 for disperse printing and H5 flake-form CMS for vat, discharge and selected burn-out applications. Buyers can submit a current sample or TDS for grade matching before trial and bulk purchasing.

CMS Grade Selection · Buyer Checklist
How to Select a CMS Thickener Grade for Textile Printing
Select a carboxymethyl starch thickener according to the printing process, viscosity test conditions, paste behavior and actual trial result. CN-R is the recommended starting route for reactive printing, FS-05 for disperse printing, while H5 is a flake starch grade for vat dye, discharge and selected burn-out or devoré printing processes. Current samples or TDS documents can also be reviewed before production trials and bulk purchasing.
Match the CMS Grade to the Printing Process
Start with CN-R for reactive textile printing, FS-05 for disperse printing, or H5 flake starch for vat dye, discharge and selected burn-out applications. Fabric composition, dye system and printing paste formulation should also be confirmed.
Compare Viscosity Under Matched Test Conditions
Compare CMS viscosity using the same solution concentration, temperature and test method. Then review paste preparation, viscosity development, paste body, flow behavior and stability before deciding which grade should enter a printing trial.
Evaluate Printing and Post-Treatment Results
Run a controlled trial to compare screen performance, edge definition, color yield, penetration, wash-off, background staining and fabric handle. For H5 projects, also evaluate discharge or burn-out development and post-treatment results.
Confirm Supply, Packing and Documents
Before ordering, confirm the selected grade, approved sample result, minimum order quantity, production lead time, 25 kg bags, pallet or export packing and required TDS and SDS. Batch COA is prepared for the confirmed production batch.

CMS Grades · TDS · Sample Review
01
What is the difference between CN-R, FS-05 and H5?
CN-R is the FSX CMS grade for reactive textile printing, while FS-05 is developed for disperse printing. H5 is a flake-form starch grade within the FSX CMS range for vat dye, discharge and selected burn-out or devoré printing processes. Final selection should be confirmed by the printing process, fabric, paste formulation, test conditions and trial result.
02
What is H5 flake starch used for?
H5 is a specialty flake starch grade available for evaluation in vat dye printing, discharge printing and selected alkali burn-out or devoré applications. Suitability depends on the fabric composition, dye or chemical system, paste preparation and production conditions, so sample testing is recommended before bulk use.
03
Why are CMS viscosity values tested at different concentrations?
Different CMS grades may use different reference solution concentrations because their product form, paste behavior and intended printing process are not identical. CN-R and FS-05 reference viscosity values are listed at 5%, while H5 is listed at 8%. Values should only be compared under the same concentration, temperature, instrument, spindle, speed and test method.
04
Can FSX Chemical match my current CMS supplier grade?
FSX Chemical can review your current CMS sample or TDS together with the viscosity test conditions, pH, printing process, fabric type, paste formulation and expected result. We can then recommend CN-R, FS-05 or H5 as a possible comparison route. A direct replacement should only be confirmed after laboratory evaluation and production trials.
05
What information is needed for CMS sample matching or quotation?
Please provide your current CMS sample or TDS, printing process, fabric type, viscosity requirement and test method, paste preparation conditions, expected printing result, estimated order quantity, destination and packing requirements. This information helps FSX Chemical recommend a relevant trial grade and prepare a more accurate commercial quotation.
06
What should buyers compare before changing CMS suppliers?
Buyers should compare more than the quoted price. Important checks include viscosity under matched test conditions, paste preparation, batch consistency, screen performance, printing results, technical response, sample availability, packing, production lead time, document support and delivery coordination.
07
Which CMS technical and batch documents are available?
FSX Chemical can provide TDS and SDS support for product evaluation. SDS may still be called MSDS in some markets. Batch COA is prepared according to the confirmed production batch, while packing lists, shipping marks and other export documents are prepared according to the confirmed order and shipment requirements.
08
What packing and export options are available for CMS bulk orders?
CMS is commonly supplied in 25 kg bags for bulk export orders. Inner lining, pallet loading, shipping marks, neutral packing, private labels and other export packing requirements can be reviewed according to the selected grade, order quantity, destination and shipment method.
