Abstract A young Palmyra palm fruit husk, an agricultural by-product after removing sweet jelly seed, was used as starting material for carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) synthesis. Significant increases for percent yield (101.35–125.72%), degree of substitution (DS: 0.19–0.58), and solubility (10.04–83.58%) were observed when sodium hydroxide (NaOH) level increased (30–60%, w/v) (P
