Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC)
One, Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether produced from natural high molecular materials through a series of chemical processing.
It embodies nearly all the properties of methylcellulose (MC), making it an ideal additive for producing high-quality construction materials. To meet the demand for green and environmentally friendly products, our factory has specially developed and produced the Tashong brand, which boasts high water retention, excellent dispersibility, fine particle size, good workability, and easy solubility. It is suitable for a wide range of new construction materials such as dry powder mortar, water-resistant jointing compound for interior and exterior walls, adhesives, sealants, bonding agents, water-based paints, and self-leveling agents.
In the production of construction materials, cellulose ether is an indispensable additive. After adding HPMC, the following properties can be improved:
1. Water Retention – Enhance water retention to improve the properties of cement and gypsum building materials, preventing issues such as rapid drying, insufficient hydration, poor hardening, and cracking.
2. Workability – Enhanced plasticity of mortar, improving the industrial nature of construction, and increasing work efficiency.
3. Adhesiveness – The increased plasticity of the mortar enhances its ability to bond with the base material and adhered objects.
Viscosity available in 50,000/100,000/150,000/200,000/250,000 units, select the appropriate viscosity grade based on application needs.
