HPMC

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether. It is odorless, tasteless, off white powder, can be dissolved in water and forms transparent viscous solution. HPMC is widely used in building materials, ceramic extrusions, personal-care products and many other fields, It will improve your products in water retention, bonding ability, thickening effects, dispersion rate and suspension etc.

Eight advantages

Lubrication

Improves workability and processing effect of cement-based and ceramic-based extrusions by its lubrication.

PH stability

Matecel® remains stable in the range of pH 3.0~11.0. The solubility of Matecel® can largely increase in the presence of alkali environment.

Stable Chemistry

Compatible with other ionic and non-ionic additives in aqueous solutions while providing a stable combination when dissolved in water.

Save Cost

Large water demand of Matecel® can make your materials yield higher volume of outputs, and thus save your cost.

Thickening effects

Matecel® Increases viscosity of liquids in daily-chemical products and personal care products

Suspension effects

Enhances dispersion rate suspension effect and the stability of suspension systems, including concrete, mortar, EIFS system.

Water retention

Avoid quick water-loss during the drying of constructions, enhance water retention, ensure sufficient hydration time for cement-based, lime-based and gypsum-based materials.

Open time

Matecel® prolongs the open time during application, give more time for correction.
