Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC)

Price: USD2000 per ton

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) are non-ionic cellulose ether & its derivatives  that have hyrdroxyl groups on the cellulose chain substituted for a methoxy or hydroxypropyl group. HPMC is made from natural cotton linter under chemical reaction,which can be dissolved in both cold water and hot water to form a transparent solution. HPMC is used as a thickener, binder, and film former in construction, pharmaceutical,food, cosmetic, detergent, paints, adhesives, inks, PVC and various other applications.CAS NO.:9004-65-3

3.Applicationfields:
1)Tile Adhesives
  • Better workability: lubricity and plasticity of plaster is ensured, mortar can be applied easier and quicker.
  • Good water retention: prolonged opening time will make tiling more efficient.
  • Improved adhesion and sliding resistance: especially for heavy tiles.
2)Dry mixed mortar
  • Easy dry mix formula due to cold water solubility: lump formation can be easily avoided, ideal for heavy tiles.
  • Good water retention: prevention of fluid loss to the substrates, the appropriate water content is kept in mixture which guarantees longer concreting time.
3)Cement/Gypsum based Plaster
  • Increased water demand: increased open time, expanded spry area and more economical formulation.
  • Easier spreading and improved sagging resistance due to improved consistency.
4)Wall putty/Skimcoat
  • 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.
5)Exterior Insulation and Finish System ( EIFS )
  • Improved adhesion.
  • Good wetting ability for EPS board and substrate.
  • Reduced air entrancement and water uptake.
6)Self-leveling
  • Protection from water exudation and material sedimentation.
  • No effect on slurry fluidity with low viscosity
HPMC, while its water retention characteristics improve the finish performance on the surface.
7)Crack Filler
  • Better workability: proper thickness and plasticity.
  • Water retention ensures prolonged work time.
  • Sag resistance: improved mortar bonding ability.
