HPMC Cellulose for Uzbekistan
HPMC Cellulose for Uzbekistan: A Versatile Solution for Various Industrial Applications
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) Cellulose, also known as hypromellose, is widely used in various industries due to its excellent properties such as water retention, thickening, and binding. It is a non-ionic cellulose ether made from natural polymer cellulose, which makes it environment-friendly and biodegradable. This HPMC Cellulose for Uzbekistan is of high quality and can be used in different applications such as construction, food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products.
Construction Industry
HPMC Cellulose is a popular additive in the construction industry as it acts as a thickener and water retention agent. It enhances the adhesion and workability of cement-based materials, thus improving the quality and durability of the end product. It is commonly used in cement plasters, tile adhesives, and self-leveling compounds.
Food Industry
HPMC Cellulose is commonly used in the food industry as an emulsifier, thickener, and stabilizer. It is added to processed foods such as ice cream, salad dressings, and sauces to maintain their consistency and prevent separation. It is also used in baking to improve the texture and appearance of baked goods.
Pharmaceutical Industry
HPMC Cellulose is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a binder and thickener in tablet formulations. It is also used as a coating for pharmaceuticals to enhance their appearance and taste and to protect the active ingredients from environmental factors.
Personal Care Industry
HPMC Cellulose is commonly used in personal care products such as shampoo, toothpaste, and creams as a thickener and emulsifier. It enhances the texture, consistency, and stability of the products, providing a better user experience.

How to choose the appropriate hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) for different applications?
For putty powder, a viscosity of around 100,000 is generally sufficient, while mortar requires a higher viscosity, around 150,000, to be effective. Moreover, the most important function of HPMC is water retention, followed by thickening. In putty powder, as long as it has good water retention and a lower viscosity (70,000-80,000), it can still be used. Of course, a higher viscosity provides relatively better water retention. However, when the viscosity exceeds 100,000, the impact of viscosity on water retention becomes less significant.
What is the recommended viscosity of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC)?
The dosage of HPMC in actual application varies depending on factors such as climate, temperature, local lime and calcium quality, putty powder formulation, and the desired quality specified by the customer. Generally, it ranges between 4 kg to 5 kg. For example, in Beijing, most putty powders use around 5 kg; in Guizhou, it is mostly 5 kg in summer and 4.5 kg in winter; in Yunnan, the dosage is smaller, usually around 3 kg to 4 kg, and so on.
Several dissolution methods of Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC)
1. Whiteness: Although whiteness alone does not determine the usefulness of HPMC, higher-quality products usually have better whiteness.
2. Fineness: HPMC is typically available in 80 and 100 mesh sizes, with fewer options in 120 mesh. Finer particles generally indicate better quality.
3. Transmittance: When HPMC is dissolved in water and forms a transparent colloidal solution, higher transmittance indicates fewer insoluble impurities.
4. Specific gravity: Higher specific gravity is generally better. A higher specific gravity is often due to a higher content of hydroxypropyl, which results in better water retention.
What are the differences between HPMC and MC?
The cold-water soluble type of HPMC is surface-treated with formaldehyde, allowing it to disperse rapidly in cold water but not truly dissolve. It only dissolves when the viscosity increases. The thermal soluble type does not undergo surface treatment with formaldehyde. A higher dosage of formaldehyde results in faster dispersion but slower viscosity increase, while a lower dosage has the opposite effect.
