product description

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC for short) is a nonionic cellulose ether high-molecular compound, which is obtained by modifying natural cellulose (such as cotton fibers and wood pulp) through alkalization and etherification reactions. It appears as white or off-white powder/granules, odorless and tasteless, with good fluidity and no visible impurities to the naked eye.

Product Usage

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is an important nonionic cellulose ether widely used in construction, pharmaceutical, food, and personal care industries. In construction, it is commonly applied in cement mortar and tile adhesives to provide thickening, water retention, and improved workability. In pharmaceuticals, it serves as a coating material and controlled-release carrier to enhance drug stability and release performance. In food and cosmetics, it functions as a thickener and stabilizer, improving texture and user experience. It offers excellent film-forming ability, solubility, and safety.
