HPMC Cellulose for Pakistan

In Pakistan, the construction industry is rapidly growing, and the demand for high-quality building materials is increasing day by day. The use of HPMC Cellulose has become prominent in the construction industry as it is one of the most versatile materials used for various purposes. HPMC cellulose is a cellulose ether made from natural wood pulp. It is widely used in the manufacturing of building materials, such as cement-based products, plaster, and putty. It is also preferred in the food and pharmaceutical industry as it is non-toxic, non-irritating, and hypoallergenic. One of the major advantages of HPMC cellulose is its ability to improve the properties of construction materials. It enhances the water retention capacity and workability of cement-based products, leading to a superior quality finish. It also improves the bonding strength and reduces the cracking of plaster and putty, providing a durable and long-lasting solution. In Pakistan, the use of HPMC cellulose has gained immense popularity among the construction industry. Due to its versatility and superior quality, it has become a preferred choice for builders, contractors, and engineers. With its growing demand, the availability of HPMC cellulose has become easier, providing a win-win situation for both the suppliers and the customers. Apart from Pakistan, HPMC cellulose has become a sought-after material in other countries, including Malta, Russia, United States, and Peru. With its increasing popularity and demand, suppliers have started to focus on providing high-quality HPMC cellulose to meet the market requirements. In conclusion, the use of HPMC cellulose has revolutionized the construction industry in Pakistan. Its versatility, quality, and ease of use have made it a preferred choice among builders and contractors. The growing demand in Pakistan and other countries, including Malta, Russia, United States, and Peru, has paved the way for suppliers to provide high-quality HPMC cellulose and meet the market requirements.

Application

Hydroxyethyl cellulose（HEC）

The most important property of hydroxyethyl cellulose powder is that it acts as a thickener, in creasing the viscosity of the liquid,and its thickening depends on its concentration. If you're searching for a versatile solution that enhances the performance of your products, look no further than Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) powder.

Gypsum Special Grade HPMC

The gypsum special grade hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose HPMC has the characteristics of high water retention, dispersibility, good fineness, good workability and easy dissolution. widely used in gypsum products like gypsum plaster, adhesive plaster, embedded gypsum, tile adhesives etc.

Daily Chemical Products Additive

Daily Chemical HPMC has a variety of properties such as thickening, foam stabllization,emulifiation, and easy dispersion. Shampoo Additive HPMC has good compatibility with various additives of other daily chemical products. It is widely used in detergents, shower gels, shampoos, hand sanitizers, and laundry liquid and other products.

Tile Adhesive Additive

Tile Adhesive Additive HPMC can ensure the smooth construction on difterent base surtaces, even when the ambient temperalure is relalively harsh, the tile adhesive can be given a long enough open time and adjustable time.

Gypsum Additive

In gypsum products, the focus is on water retention, retardation and lubrication. Different gypsum has different effects on product performance, so thickening, water retention, and retardation determine the quality of gypsum building materials.

Mortar Additive

Adding hydroxypropyl metylellulose can improve anti-sip performance, improve wetting performance, thicken, improve batch scraping and slipping, easy to level, improve surface performance and strength, and have very good compatibility with other additives.

Putty Powder Additive

Hydroxypropyl metylcellulose is a commonly used raw material in powdered building materials, which greatly improves the slip performance and anti-sag performance of the construction, improves the wettability, improves the anti-slip performance of the putty, improves the leveling effect of the putty, and improves the construction eficlency.

As a professional manufacturer of architectural-grade HPMC, we provide you with comprehensive technical guidance and problem-solving support throughout the production and application processes.

How much do you know about Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose(HPMC)?

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether obtained by cellulose alkalization, etherification, neutralization and washing. HPMC has good thickening, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming properties, etc.It is the first choice for production of high quality building materials additives.

How to improve the adhesion of putty

When encountering the projects that have been constructed, it is found that the adhesion of putty on the exterior wall is poor, the following methods can be adopted to improve the adhesion of putty:

Dissolution Method

Take the required amount of hot water into the container and heat to above 85., stir slowly and add the product gradually The cellulose initially floats on the water, but gradually disperses in water and forms homogeneous slurry. Goon stirring until it cools down and becomes clear

Faq

What is the relationship between the gelation temperature of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and something else?

The viscosity of HPMC is inversely proportional to temperature, meaning that viscosity increases as temperature decreases. When we refer to the viscosity of a certain product, it generally refers to the measurement result of its 2% water solution at 20 degrees Celsius. In practical applications, in regions with large temperature differences between summer and winter, it is advisable to use relatively lower viscosity during winter for better construction. Otherwise, at low temperatures, the viscosity of the cellulose increases, resulting in a heavier feel during application. Medium viscosity: 75,000-100,000 (mainly used for putty) Reason: Good water retention. High viscosity: 150,000-200,000 (mainly used for polystyrene particle insulation mortar powder and foamed glass bead insulation mortar) Reason: High viscosity, reduces mortar dusting and sagging, improves construction. However, in general, higher viscosity provides better water retention. Therefore, many dry mortar manufacturers consider using medium-viscosity cellulose (75,000-100,000) instead of low-viscosity cellulose (20,000-40,000) to reduce the dosage and costs.

How to judge the quality of HPMC?

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose, in English: Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose, also known as HPMC or MHPC. Other names: Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose; Cellulose Hydroxypropyl Methyl Ether; Hypromellose; Cellulose, 2-hydroxypropylmethyl Cellulose ether; Cellulose hydroxypropyl methyl ether; Hyprolose.

How many types does 2-Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) have, and what are the differences in their applications?

The two main indicators most users are concerned about are the content of hydroxypropyl and viscosity. Higher hydroxypropyl content generally indicates better water retention. A higher viscosity also provides relatively better water retention (not absolute), and HPMC with higher viscosity is more suitable for cement mortar.

What are the main raw materials of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC)?

The powder loss in putty is mainly related to the quality of the lime powder and has little to do with HPMC. Low calcium content in lime powder and an improper ratio of CaO and Ca(OH)2 in lime powder can both cause powder loss. If there is a slight relationship with HPMC, it would be that poor water retention of HPMC can also contribute to powder loss.
