Premium HPMC Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose Factory and Suppliers in China
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a high-performance non-ionic cellulose ether derived from natural polymer materials. Depending on its solubility profiles, HPMC is categorized into two primary types: Instant Dissolving and Hot Dissolving, each engineered to meet the rigorous demands of specific industrial applications ranging from personal care to heavy-duty construction.
Our HPMC serves as a versatile additive, acting as a thickener, emulsifier, and water-retention agent. Whether you require high permeability for detergent formulations or superior workability and anti-cracking properties for construction mortars, our product ensures exceptional stability, purity, and consistent performance across all batches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Instant dissolving HPMC can be mixed into room temperature water and is ideal for detergents and cosmetics. Hot dissolving HPMC requires water above 60°C and is specifically engineered for construction and ceramic industries.
Purity can be checked via three methods: 1. Burning the powder to check if the ash ratio is under 5%. 2. Comparing the weight of the same volume (heavier usually means purer). 3. Observing the fluidity when rolling the powder in a jar.
It is highly effective in Tile Adhesive Mortar, EIFS Mortar, Outdoor Block Bonding Mortar, and Self-leveling Slurry, providing anti-drooping and anti-cracking properties.
Yes, the instant dissolving type is widely used in shampoo, liquid soap, toothpaste, and dishwashing detergents as a thickener and emulsifier.
Yes, we provide free samples from different batches to ensure our quality stability. The buyer only needs to cover the air shipping costs.
HPMC improves water retention, prevents powdering, and enhances the workability of the putty, ensuring a smooth finish and long-term durability.
