The viscosity of HPMC is an important factor in its price. Generally speaking, the higher the viscosity of HPMC, the higher its price. This is because higher viscosity HPMCs require higher process requirements and more complex production processes, resulting in higher costs. For example, 400 viscosity HPMC is usually used in gypsum self-levelling products, but its price […]

Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) is a semisynthetic, viscoelastic polymer that is widely used in the pharmaceutical and food industries as a thickener, binder, and controlled release agent. It is a white, tasteless, and odorless powder that is soluble in water and many organic solvents, but it is not soluble in oil. Dissolving HPMC is a simple process, but […]

HPMC is used to bond tiles to a substrate or surface, and drying time can affect the success of the installation. Here Are Some Ways to Make Quick-drying Tile Adhesive. Increase Air Flow Increasing the air flow around your tiles can help the adhesive dry faster. You can do this by opening windows and doors, […]

HPMC plays three roles in the putty powder, including thickening, water retention and construction. Thickening: Cellulose can be thickened to suspend, keep the solution uniform, and resist sagging. Water retention: Make the putty powder dry slowly, and assist the reaction of ash calcium under the action of water. Construction: Cellulose has a lubricating effect, which […]

HPMC introduction： HPMC or hypromellose is the short name for hydroxyrpopyl methyl cellulose. It is produced from natural cellulose by alkaliization and etherification.  It is a kind of cellulose derivatives. HPMC could improve the performance of dry mix mortar with a low dosage. It is a important additive in dry mix mortar products. HPMC properties: […]

Dry mix mortar plays a crucial role in the construction industry, providing strength and durability to various structures. One key ingredient that enhances the properties of dry mix mortar is HPMC (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose). HPMC is a versatile additive that offers several benefits, including improved workability, increased adhesion, enhanced water retention, and better sag resistance. In this article, […]

1. Preparation-Mixed Concrete: HPMC is widely used in the production of ready-mix concrete to enhance workability and pumpability. It enables the transportation and placement of concrete over long distances without segregation or slump loss. Moreover, HPMC improves the workability of concrete surfaces, resulting in smoother and aesthetically pleasing finishes. 2. Mortar and Grouting: In mortar and […]

hot water solution method: because HPMC is not dissolved in hot water, so the initial HPMC can be evenly dispersed in hot water, then quickly dissolved when cooling, two typical methods are described as follows: 1) Put the required amount of hot water in the container and heat it to about 70℃. Under the slow […]
