This is a key reason for choosing Michem HPMC supplier.
Michem HPMC Increases the viscosity of the product andenhances the stability of the suspension. When used as athickener in building applications, it prevents segregationand improves the cohesion of the formulation components.
Michem HPMC Increases the thixotropy of the product andprevents sagging to various substrates. Provides adhesiveswith better slip properties.
Michem HPMC Substantially reduces the loss of waterwhen applied to water absorbing materials especially inhigh temperature environments, effectively prolong theopening time.
Michem HPMC plays a vital role in optimizing mortarconsistency, providing excellent adhesion, smoothapplication, and enhanced workability for improvedperformance on site.
MICHEM provides “Sample Satisfaction Guaranteed Service” to ensure that the final HPMC sample fully meets your needs.
We guarantee your rights:
We look forward to cooperating with you to enhance the competitiveness of our products.
MICHEM HPMC can be divided into two series: surface treatment(P series) and non-surface treatment(PS series).
Non-Surface-Treated: Non-surface-treated HPMC retains its natural characteristics and has good water retention and water solubility.
Surface-Treated: Surface-treated HPMC granules are easy to disperse in cold water. It can delay dissolution and enhance stability.
Combining production and innovation to create high-performance HPMC
As a professional manufacturer of cellulose ether, our factory has 12+6 production lines. So we can ensure stable HPMC output.
The dust-free open refined cotton system ensures all the raw materials are transported in closed tubes, which greatly improves working conditions, prevents environmental pollution, and protects employees’ health.
High-quality refined cotton as the raw material combined with advanced automatic production equipment ensures the quality of each batch of HPMC.
MICHEM has six fully equipped laboratories for the physical and chemical testing of raw materials and finished products.
We have an experienced and professional technical service team who can provide customers with technical advice & support. And constantly innovate and improve HPMC performance.
MICHEM HPMC is mainly used as an effective additive in the following products. Let's explore together!
MICHEM HPMC enhances the adhesion of tiles to the substrate and prevents hollowing and peeling.
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose makes the putty smoother, easier to scrape, and reduces construction resistance.
MICHEM HPMC is mainly used in thermal insulation mortars. It reduces the risk of the insulation board falling off and improves the system’s safety.
MICHEM HPMC lets self-leveling compounds have good fluidity and self-leveling. It can automatically level and fill the unevenness of the ground, reducing the difficulty of manual scraping.
HPMC gives plaster a certain resistance to sagging and flowing, especially when working on vertical walls. It prevents the plaster from slipping before curing and ensures a level wall surface.
MICHEM HPMC disperses solid particles in the detergent and prevents caking. It ensures even distribution of detergent ingredients and improves cleaning efficiency.
MICHEM HPMC is packaged in multi-layer paper bags (25kg Bag ) lined with PE and supplied in shrink-wrapped trays.
