HPMC is a non-ionic cellulose ether synthesized via etherification of alkali cellulose with propylene oxide and methyl chloride. It functions as a versatile thickener, binder, and film former in industrial formulations.
Store in a dry, cool place below 25°C to prevent clumping. Avoid inhalation of dust; wear respiratory protection during handling. Not suitable for injectable formulations due to lack of sterilization compatibility.
