This review article deals with the technically important carboxymethyl ethers of cellulose and starch. Recent developments of synthesis, characterization, and application are presented considering adequately own research work in this field. In particular, the structure characterization by means of chromatographic (HPLC) and NMR‐spectroscopic techniques as well as commercially important synthesis paths and alternative methods are described.
