Hydropropyl methyl cellulose plays an important role in water retention, retarding and lubrication of gypsum products. Different gypsum has different effects on the properties of gypsum products, so thickening, water retention and retarding determine the quality of gypsum building materials.

In the external wall insulation system, the use of hpmc can improve the workability, water retention, open time and conventional physical properties of external wall insulation mortar products. It can improve the adhesion, especially the adhesion to EPS / XPS and mineral wool board. It can improve the cohesion of the mortar, prevent cracking, and enhance long-term durability.

In tile adhesives, the high water retention of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose can significantly improve bond strength without the need to pre-soak or wet the tiles and foundation. The slurry can be applied for a long time, it is fine and uniform, easy to apply, and has good slip resistance.

Adding hpmc to the tile sealant can make the sealant have good edge adhesion, low shrinkage, and high wear resistance. It can protect the base material from mechanical damage and avoid the negative impact of water penetration on the entire building.

Our hpmc powder used as thickener, stabilizer, emulsifier, excipient, water-retaining agent in coatings, building materials, paint removers, agricultural chemicals, inks, textile printing and dyeing, ceramics, papermaking, cosmetics, and other products, Film-forming agent, etc.

1. PH stability: Its viscosity is hardly affected by acid and alkali, and its pH value is relatively stable in the range of 3.0-11.0.
2. Surface activity: It has the function of surface activity, and can be used as a colloid protective agent, emulsifier and dispersant.
3. Thermo gel effect: When the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose aqueous solution is heated to a certain temperature, it becomes opaque, forms a precipitate, and the solution loses viscosity. But after continuous cooling, it can return to the original solution state. The temperature at which gelation and precipitation occur depends mainly on the type of product, the concentration of the solution and the heating rate.
4. Water retention: Due to the hydrophilic properties of hpmc powder and the high viscosity of its aqueous solution, it can be added to mortar, gypsum, coatings, etc. as a highly effective water retention agent.
5. Salt resistance: Because this product is a non-ionic cellulose ether and a non-polymeric electrolyte, it is relatively stable in aqueous solutions of metal salts or organic electrolytes.
6. Adhesiveness: As a high-performance adhesive, it is used in pigments, paper, tobacco products, and ceramic products.
7. Mildew resistance: It has relatively good mildew resistance and good viscosity stability during long-term storage.
8. Lubricity: Adding this product can reduce the friction coefficient and improve the lubricity of extruded ceramic products and cement products.
9. Film-forming property: This product can produce a strong and flexible transparent film with good oil and ester resistance.
