Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, also known as hypromellose, is a kind of nonionic cellulose mixed ether. It is a semi-synthetic, inactive, viscoelastic polymer. Odorless and non-toxic, it can be dissolved in cold water to form a transparent liquid, and has the characteristics of thickening, bonding, dispersing, emulsifying, film forming, suspending, water retention and protective colloid.
The use of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose
Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, abbreviated as HPMC, can be used in building materials, paint industry, synthetic resin, ceramic industry, daily chemical detergent, medicine, food, textile, agriculture, cosmetics and other industries.
The HPMC produced by YIDA is mainly used in the field of construction and daily chemical products. It has good thickening properties and various viscosity models can be customized.
Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose for Building Materials
HPMC for exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS), which can maximize the cohesion of the cohesive mortar in piles, without hanging, and the construction is not smooth and uninterrupted.
HPMC for tile adhesives, which can reduce the moisture absorbed by the substrate and tiles in the mortar, keep the moisture in the adhesive as much as possible, prolong the open time, and improve the construction efficiency.
HPMC for self-leveling mortar, which can weave and bleed, play a good suspension effect, prevent slurry from settling, and will not affect the fluidity of self-leveling mortar, which is convenient for construction.
HPMC for gypsum-based plastering, which can significantly improve the sag resistance, so that thick-coated gypsum will not produce ripples, and retain the moisture in the mortar to fully set the gypsum.
Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose for Daily Chemicals
When HPMC is used in the production of detergents such as laundry detergent, hand sanitizer, and detergent, it is used as a non-ionic thickener, and the viscosity of the thickened surfactant system is relatively stable with temperature changes. Improve the fluidity of the system, with a silky feel, and at the same time make the cleaning effect smoother, improve the skin feel, and improve the dry and wet combability of hair.
Why choose YIDA HPMC
YIDA has been focusing on the production of HPMC for 17 years. The LEAD® hydroxypropyl methylcellulose we produce has excellent performance and a very competitive price. We also provide free product testing and formulation technical guidance, and can customize production according to customer needs. The annual output of HPMC reaches 40,000 tons and is sold to more than 40 countries and regions around the world.
HPMC hydroxypropyl methylcellulose produced by YIDA can be used as a thickener, dispersant, and stabilizer in construction mortar, tile adhesive,wall putty,gypsum mortar,cement mortar and so on.
YIDA VAE/RDP has good film-forming properties, is easily soluble in water and easy to form emulsions, has strong cohesion, and has strong tensile properties. It can give mortar good fluidity and workability, and effectively improve mortar cohesion and impact resistance. resistance, wear resistance, weather resistance, sealing, impermeability and bond strength.
Polycarboxylate superplasticizer is a chemical admixture for concrete and self-leveling mortar, which can improve the workability of concrete and reduce water consumption.
The defoamer is a powder defoamer for nonionic surfactants used in cement and gypsum-based dry-mixed mortar mixtures. It has the characteristics of easy dispersion, fast defoaming, high stability and strong adaptability.
