Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a white or off-white powder, odorless and tasteless, with uniform particle size, good fluidity and no mechanical impurities. The core advantage lies in its quick solubility in cold water and insolubility in hot water - it can dissolve rapidly when stirred in cold water at 20-30℃, forming a transparent, uniform and viscous solution.

Product Usage

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (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 mortars, putty powders, and tile adhesives to provide thickening, water retention, and improved workability. In the pharmaceutical industry, it serves as a tablet coating material and controlled-release matrix to enhance drug stability and release performance. In food and personal care products, it acts as a thickener, stabilizer, and film-forming agent, improving texture and user experience. The product offers good water solubility, film-forming ability, and safety.
