Applications:
HPMC is used in various applications including;
- construction
- pharmaceutical
- food
Benefits:
- Vital to improving properties such as; sag resistance, workability, water retention
- Acts as a binder and thickener across food stuffs, construction products and inks etc.
- Helps to prevent crack formation, drying out and separation of raw materials
- Can improve adhesion strength and product shelf-life
- Provides good volume and texture
- Reduces oil absorption and helps product to maintain structure and shape
- Acts as a binder, thickener and stabiliser in a range of foodstuffs – resulting in firm texture with good mouth-feel and freeze-thaw ability
- Can be used in pharmaceuticals as an organic, solvent, control released coating
- High viscosity and water soluble
