HPMC(HydroxyPropyl Methyl Cellulose) has a thermal gel properties, after heating, the product solution formed the gel precipitation, dissolving after cooling. Different specifications products have different gel temperature. Solubility changes with viscosity’s difference. The lower viscosity, the higher solubility, different specifications HPMC have difference in properties, dissolving HPMC(HydroxyPropyl Methyl Cellulose) in water won’t be affected by PH value.

HPMC(HydroxyPropyl Methyl Cellulose) is a highly pure cotton cellulose as raw material, under alkaline conditions by special etherification and preparation.White or whitish powder.HPMC decreases with the decrease of methoxide content, increase of gel point, decrease of water solubility and decrease of surface activity.

HPMC(HydroxyPropyl Methyl Cellulose) is similar to other cellulose ethers, mainly used as dispersant, suspension agent, thickener, emulsifier, stabilizer and adhesive in various fields. It is superior to other cellulose ethers in solubility, dispersity, transparency and enzyme resistance.

In the food and drug industry, used as additives, because of its adhesion, film forming, thickening and dispersing in the liquid, as well as anti-grease penetration and water retention, so used as adhesives, thickeners, dispersants, alleviators, stabilizers and emulsifiers. It has no toxicity, no nutritional value, and no metabolic changes.

In addition HPMC in synthetic resin polymerization reaction, petrochemical, ceramic, paper, leather, cosmetics, coatings, building materials and photosensitive printing plate and other aspects have been applied.

The main purpose

1. Construction industry: as cement mortar water retention agent, retarder mortar with pumping. In plastering, gypsum, putty powder or other building materials as adhesive, improve daub and prolong the operation time. Used for pasting ceramic tile, marble, plastic decoration, paste strengthen agent, still can reduce cement dosage. HPMC’s water retention performance makes the slurry after application will not be due to dry too fast and crack, enhance the strength after hardening.

2. Ceramic manufacturing: widely used as adhesive in ceramic product manufacturing.

3. Coating industry: in the coating industry as a thickener, dispersant and stabilizer, in water or organic solvents have a good solubility. As a paint remover.

4 ink printing: in the ink industry as a thickener, dispersant and stabilizer, in water or organic solvents have a good solubility.
