Cellulose ethers commonly used in paints include methyl cellulose (MC), hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC). These water-soluble polymers have different chemical modifications and properties, but all have thickening and stabilizing effects. Among them, hydroxyethyl cellulose is one of the most widely used thickeners in the paints industry. Hydroxyethyl cellulose is prepared by reacting cellulose […]

Cellulose is a key contributor to the smoothness and consistency of paints, and is a major component of the cell walls of green plants. Processed and modified, cellulose can be used to thicken and stabilize a variety of water-based products, including paints. Due to the complexity of each paint formulation, cellulose is required for efficient […]

High-quality hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) powder is a prized additive in the construction industry due to its ability to improve the performance of various building materials like mortar, plaster, and adhesives. It acts as a thickening, binding, and water retention agent, leading to better workability and overall performance of these materials. Here’s what makes high-quality […]

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) powder is a versatile additive used in construction materials like mortar, plaster, and adhesives. It functions as a thickening, binding, and water retention agent, improving the overall workability and performance of these materials. Here’s a closer look at the benefits of using HPMC powder in construction: Improved workability: HPMC modifies the […]

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose(HPMC) is a commonly used functional polymer compound. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose may change its performance and quality due to moisture during our use. So can hydroxypropyl methylcellulose still be used when it gets wet? First, we need to find the cause of moisture in hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Improper storage and humid environments are one of the […]

We all know that the main function of cellulose is water retention and thickening, and the water retention rate is especially important in the application. The most important main material for putty and mortar is cement, which is a water-hard material and must have enough water to make it harden completely. So sometimes putty on […]

The main points that affect the light transmission of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose are the following. I. The quality of the raw material. Second, the effect of alkalization. Three, the process ratio Four, the ratio of solvent Five, the effect of neutralization Some products are very cloudy after dissolution like adding milk, some are milky white, some […]

In cement mortars and gypsum-based slurries, cellulose ether HPMC mainly acts as a water retainer and thickener, which can effectively improve the bonding and sagging resistance of the slurry. Factors such as air temperature, temperature and wind pressure speed affect the evaporation rate of water in cement mortars and gypsum-based products. Therefore, there are some […]

HPMC stands for Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, which is a versatile and widely used chemical compound derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plants. HPMC is used in various industries, including construction, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food, due to its unique properties. In the context of construction, HPMC is often used as an additive in building materials such as […]
