Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose

CAS:9004-65-3

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is also named as MHPC, are types of non-ionic cellulose ether, which are a powder of white to off-white color, that function as a thickener, binder, film-former, surfactant, protective colloid, lubricant, emulsifier, and suspension and water retention aid. In addition, these types of cellulose ethers exhibit properties of thermal gelation, metabolic inertness, enzyme resistance, low odor and taste, and pH stability. HPMC are widely used in construction,pharmaceutical,food,cosmetic,detergent,paints,textiles etc.We can provide the general grade HPMC, we also designed the modified HPMC according to customer requirements. After modified, we can get the product which have long open time, good anti-sagging,good workability etc.

Applications:

Wall putty

Water retention: maximized water content in slurry.
Anti-sagging: when spreading a thicker coat corrugation can be avoided.
Increased mortar yield: depending on the weight of the dry mixture and appropriate formulation ,HPMC can increase the mortar volume.

Exterior Insulation and Finish System ( EIFS )

Improved adhesion.
Good wetting ability for EPS board and substrate.
Reduced air entrancement and water uptake.
