hidroxipropilmetilcellulóz
Hidroxipropilmetilcellulóz, often abbreviated as HPMC, is a non-ionic polymer derived from cellulose. It is a white to off-white powder that is soluble in water and many organic solvents, forming a viscous solution. HPMC is produced by the etherification of cellulose with methyl chloride and propylene oxide. The degree of substitution and molar substitution determines its specific properties.
HPMC finds widespread use as a thickener, binder, film-former, and stabilizer in a variety of industries. In
