About HPMC CAS : 9004-65-3

Product Description

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) are widely used in construction, pharmaceutical,food, cosmetic,detergent,paints,as thickener, emulsifier, film-former, binder, dispersing agent, protective colloids.We can provide the regular grade HPMC, we also can provide modified HPMC according to customer requirements. After modified and surface treatment, we can get the goods which is dispersed in water quickly, lengthen open time, anti-sagging, etc.

Typical Applications:

Tile Adhesive
Good water retention: prolonged opening time will make tiling more efficient.
Improved adhesion and sliding resistance: especially for heavy tiles.
Better workability: lubricity and plasticity of plaster is ensured, mortar can be applied easier and quicker.

Cement Plaster / Dry mix 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.
Increased water demand: increased open time, expanded spry area and more economical formulation.
Easier spreading and improved sagging resistance due to improved consistency.

Wall putty
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.

Exterior Insulation and Finish System ( EIFS )
Improved adhesion.
Good wetting ability for EPS board and substrate.
Reduced air entrancement and water uptake.

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.

Crack Filler
Better workability: proper thickness and plasticity.
Water retention ensures prolonged work time.
Sag resistance: improved mortar bonding ability.

Packaged securely in 25kg bags or as per customer specification, it maintains its physical and functional properties, offering convenience and minimized waste for bulk users.

FAQ's of HPMC CAS : 9004-65-3:

Q: How is HPMC typically used in various industries?

A: HPMC is widely used as a thickener, binder, film former, and stabilizer. In pharmaceuticals, it acts as a controlled-release agent; in construction, it improves mortar performance; in food, it stabilizes and thickens formulations; and in cosmetics, it enhances texture and stability. It is also commonly found in coatings, adhesives, and paint sectors.

Q: What are the main benefits of using HPMC over alternative additives?

A: HPMC provides consistent viscosity, rapid hydration, and excellent surface activity. Being non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless, it's suitable for sensitive applications. Its stability across pH 3-11 and low levels of impurities ensure safety and broad compatibility in numerous product types, supporting both industrial and pharmaceutical requirements.

Q: When should HPMC be added during the production process?

A: HPMC should generally be introduced during the initial mixing stage. Adding it early ensures even dispersion, rapid hydration, and the desired viscosity, regardless of the application-be it construction, pharmaceuticals, or food processing. The optimal point of addition may vary based on the specific formulation and process design.

Q: Where is HPMC manufactured and exported from?

A: HPMC under CAS 9004-65-3 is exported and manufactured in China. It is shipped globally in secure packaging, typically 25kg bags, meeting both international standards and customer-specific requests regarding particle size and packaging.

Q: What is the recommended process for dissolving HPMC powder?

A: Gradually add HPMC powder to water under continuous stirring to avoid clumping. It readily hydrates and dissolves, forming a stable colloidal solution. Using cold water helps ensure even dispersion, especially at higher viscosities or concentrations. Adjust mixing speed and time based on the viscosity grade and intended end use.

Q: How should HPMC be stored for maximum shelf life?

A: Store HPMC in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse, away from moisture, direct sunlight, and strong odors. Keeping the product in its original sealed packaging helps maintain its quality and functional properties, ensuring a shelf life of up to two years under suitable conditions.
