HPMC | Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose
CELOCELL™ HPMC products help building materials apply more easily and perform better. They provide water retention and cohesiveness to mixtures. With special modification, our CELOCELL hydroxypropylmethylcellulose derivatives can be used to control thickening, water demand, workability, sag resistance, strength and other important properties of the final product.
The different grades are chemically and physically optimized for adjusting and controlling specific properties of dry mortars and building products (cement and gypsum based). They are available in different molecular weights, particle sizes and modifications.
