(1) Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a cost-effective alternative to carbomer, it is widely used in leather, paper products industry, fruit and vegetable preservation and textile industry.

(2) Construction industry: Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) as water and sediment slurry agent, retarder so that mortar with pump-delivery. In plaster, gypsum material, putty powder or other building materials as binders, to improve the smearing and prolong the operation of time.

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is used as paste tiles, marble, plastic decoration, paste enhancer, but also can reduce the amount of cement. The water retention properties of hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose make the slurry not crack after smearing and enhance the strength after hardening.

(3) Paint industry: In the paint industry Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is used as thickener, dispersants, and stabilizers, in water or organic solvents have good miscibility. As a paint stripping agent.

(4) Plastic: Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) can be used as forming release agent, softening agent, lubricant and so on.
