Hydroxypropyl Methyl Celluloseare types of non-ionic cellulose ether, which are a powder of white to off white color, thatfunction as a thickener, binder, film-former, surfactant, protective colloid, lubricant, emulsifier and suspension and waterretention aid. In addition, there types of cellulose ethers exhibit properties of thermal gelation, metabolic inertness, enzy meresistance, low odor and taste, and PH stability.
Due to the myriad of properties, HPMC is often used to substitute many other additives with lower concentration, making HPMC anincredibly efficient and effective additive in area of adhesives, construction, foods, household products, pharmaceuticals and etc.
Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose is used similarly to other cellulose ethers, mainly as a dispersant, suspension agent, thickener, emulsifier, stabilizer, and adhesive in various fields. It is superior to other cellulose ethers in terms of solubility, dispersibility, transparency, and enzyme resistance.
In the food and pharmaceutical industry, it is used as an additive due to its adhesive, film-forming, thickening and dispersing properties in liquids, as well as its ability to prevent oil penetration and retain moisture. Therefore, it is used as an adhesive, thickener, dispersant, reliever, stabilizer, and emulsifier. It has no toxicity, no nutritional value, and no metabolic changes.
In addition, HPMC has applications in synthetic resin polymerization reactions, petrochemicals, ceramics, papermaking, leather, cosmetics, coatings, building materials, and photosensitive printing plates.
