Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose(HPMC): The Universal Adhesive Unlocking Global Industrial Applications

On the global stage of industrial materials, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC 9004-65-3) is sweeping across various application fields as a "universal adhesive". From architectural coatings to the food industry, from pharmaceutical preparations to oil extraction, this white powder-like polymer material, with its outstanding performance, has become a "favourite" on international purchase lists. Today, let's uncover the secret behind its global popularity and see why smart buyers are all scrambling to secure this industrial "all-rounder".


The core charm of HPMC 9004-65-3 stems from its unique chemical structure, which endows it with multiple properties. As a water-soluble cellulose ether, it can form a transparent and viscous solution in water, possessing the capabilities of thickening, retaining moisture, and forming films, and can also exhibit reversible gel properties at different temperatures. This "magical" performance enables it to shine in the construction industry: adding 0.2%-0.5% of HPMC 9004-65-3 to the mortar can significantly improve workability, reduce water loss, and make tile bonding more solid and wall plastering more even. A German building materials company reported that after using our HPMC 9004-65-3, the anti-slip performance of its mortar products increased by 30%, and the complaint rate in the EU market dropped to zero.


The food industry places greater emphasis on HPMC 9004-65-3's safety and functionality. As a dual-certified food additive by the FDA and EFSA, it acts as an emulsifier in baked goods to prevent oil separation; in ice cream, it serves as a stabilizer to inhibit ice crystal growth and make the texture more delicate. A US chain ice cream brand, after adopting our food-grade HPMC 9004-65-3, saw a 40% improvement in the stability of product form during the shelf life, meaning a significant reduction in transportation loss rate. In the pharmaceutical field, it serves as a coating material for sustained-release preparations, precisely controlling the release rate of drugs. An Indian pharmaceutical company successfully entered the UK market by using our HPMC 9004-65-3 to achieve 12-hour continuous drug release for ibuprofen tablets.


What is even more noteworthy is the competitive advantage of HPMC 9004-65-3 from Shigang (Hebei) Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. in the international market. We use refined cotton raw materials imported from Europe and adopt a unique two-step etherification process to increase the product purity to 99.6% and control the chloride ion content below 50 ppm, which is far superior to international counterparts. In terms of logistics support, we have signed long-term contracts with Maersk and COSCO Shipping, with goods departing from Tianjin Port arriving in Rotterdam Port within 25 days, 7 days shorter than the industry average. A Brazilian concrete additive manufacturer, after comparing three suppliers, chose us, precisely because of our full-chain quality control capabilities from raw materials to delivery.


When the global supply chain faces the dual challenges of cost and efficiency, the multi-functionality of HPMC 9004-65-3 is creating new value spaces for enterprises. Whether it is reducing construction losses, improving food quality, or optimizing drug release mechanisms, this material is reshaping industrial production in an "invisible" way.
