Product Description
Description
Hydroxylpropyl cellulose (HPC) is a nonionic water-soluble cellulose ether with a versatile combination of properties: It combines organic
Solvent solubility, thermoplasticity, and surface activity with the thickening and stabilizing properties of other water-soluble cellulose polymers.
Outstanding Characteristics
HPC is soluble in many polar organic solvents and in water below 38, but is insoluble in water above 45. HPC is highly surface-active, with low surface and interfacial tensions of solutions. It has a wide range of viscosities of varying concentrateions in water. It is thermoplastic and can be injection molded and extruded, in films and coatings.
Application
HPC is versatile: It is used in wide variety of applications, including food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, coatings, adhesives extrusions and molding paper,
Paint removers, encapsulateions inks, and many other applications requiring a film-former, stabilizer, suspending agent, film barrier, thermoplastic, or protective colloid.
Grades and Types
Hydroxylpropyl cellulose (HPC) is produced in standard and premium grades. The standard grades is for Industrial uses, the premium grades, designated for manufacturing use only, are for foods, pharmacyeutical, and cosmetic. All viscosity types are available in each grade. Solution viscosities of the various types are shown in Packing, Storage and Transportation
Package: Plastics-paper bag outside, lined with PVC bag.
Storage: Seal tightly, Exposing to the sun and rain is forbidden, to avoid absorption of moisture and contact with acid and alkali
Transportation: As common moisture-proof chemical.
