HPMC: An Effective Cement Additive for Improved Performance

Cement is a fundamental building material used in construction projects around the world. It is made up of several components, including water, aggregates, and Portland cement. However, these components alone may not be enough to achieve the desired properties, such as workability, strength, and durability, that are necessary for construction applications. Therefore, additives are commonly […]

About the application of HPMC in hand sanitizer

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose is a kind of nonionic cellulose ether, which is made from natural plant macromolecular cellulose through a series of chemical processing. It is an odorless, tasteless, non-toxic white powder. Soluble in cold water and organic mixtures. In the production process of hand sanitizer, adding an appropriate amount of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose can […]

What is the choice of HPMC viscosity when producing putty powder dry mortar?

Methyl cellulose MC and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) have stable chemical properties. Mildew resistance and water retention are not affected by changes in pH. Viscosity can be used between 50,000 and 200,000, but in production, higher viscosity is better. Viscosity is inversely proportional to bond strength. The higher the viscosity, the lower the strength. Regarding […]

The difference between methyl cellulose (MC) and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC)

MC is a kind of methyl cellulose, which is obtained by treating refined cotton with alkali and using MC as etherification agent through a series of reactions to generate cellulose ether.The degree of substitution is generally 1.6 to 2.0, depending on the solubility. HPMC is hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, is refined cotton alkalization, with acetal oxide […]

Cellulose ether uses in dry mix mortar

Cellulose ether HPMC(hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose) and MHEC(Methyl hydroxy ethyl cellulose) in dry mortar:  The water retention of cellulose ether(HPMC,MHEC) comes from its own solubility and dehydration. Although the molecular chain of cellulose contains a lot of hydroxyl groups with strong hydration properties, it is not soluble in water, This is because the cellulose structure has a […]
