SidleyCel® Hydroxypropy1
Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is non-ionic cellulose ether made from natural cotton fiber under series of chemical processing. It's odorless, tasteless and non-toxic white powder, can be dissolved in cold water to form a transparent viscous solution with the properties of thickening, binding, dispersing, emulsifying, film coating, suspending, absorbing, gelling, water retention and colloid protection.
HPMC is a multi-functional pharmaceutical adjuvant which can be used as thickener, dispersant, emulsifier and film-forming agent. As film coating and binder, it can improve the dissolution rate of drugs. It can also be used as a suspension aid, host material in ophthalmic preparations and etc.
Sidley Cel® Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose
(HPMC) can provide viscosity in all types of surfactant system. The powder surface has been treated through unique process, so it can be dissolved in the water quickly and has no agglomeration, flocculation or precipitation during dissolution.
