Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC)
Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is odorless, tasteless,non-toxic
cellulose ethers produce from natural high molecula and protective colloid properties of surface activity and maintain moisture function properties ect.cellulose through series of chemical processing and achieved.
HPMC is white powder with good water solubility. It has thickening, adhesion ,dispersing,emulsifying, film, suspended, adsorption, gel. In the course of construction,HPMC is used for wall putty, tile adhesive, cement mortar, dry mix mortar, wall plaster, skim coat, mortar, concrete admixtures, cement, gypsum plaster, joints fillers, crack filler, etc.
Applications of HPMC
1.Tile Adhesive
2.Wall Putty
3.Tile grout,Joints
4.Crack Fillers
5.Gypsum Manual Plaster
6.Exterior Insulation
7.Finish System(EIFS)
8.Skim Coat Manual Plaster
9.Self-leceling Compound
10.Water-borne paint
11.Shampoo,detergent
HPMC has a variety of properties such as thickening, foam stabilization, emulsification, and easy dispersion. It has good compatibility with various additives of other daily chemical products. It is widely used in detergents, shower gels, and detergents. Hair shampoo, hand sanitizer, laundry detergent and other products.
