Achieve Optimal Performance with Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps: High-Viscosity Solution for Advanced Pharmaceutical, Food, and Industrial Applications

Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps provides high-viscosity performance for pharmaceuticals, food, and industrial uses. Its superior thickening, binding, and film-forming properties ensure consistency, stability, and improved formulation results.

 

What is Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps?

Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps is Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose with a viscosity of 15 centipoises. This high-viscosity polymer is widely used for its thickening, binding, and film-forming properties. It finds applications in pharmaceuticals, where it acts as a binder, film-coating agent, and controlled release component. In the food industry, it serves as a stabilizer and thickener, improving texture and consistency. It is also utilized in cosmetics for texture enhancement and in industrial applications for improved performance and stability in products like adhesives, paints, and construction materials.

What is the usage of Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps?

Pharcocel (HPMC) 15 cps refers to Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) with a viscosity of 15 centipoise (cps). HPMC is a cellulose ether used in various industries due to its versatile properties. Here are some common uses:

  1. Pharmaceutical Industry:
    • Binders: Used in tablet formulations to bind ingredients together.
    • Controlled Release: Helps in controlling the release of active ingredients from tablets or capsules.
    • Disintegrants: Aids in the disintegration of tablets in the gastrointestinal tract.
  2. Food Industry:
    • Thickening Agent: Used as a thickener in sauces, dressings, and other food products.
    • Stabilizer: Helps stabilize emulsions and suspensions.
    • Film-forming Agent: Used in coatings for food products.
  3. Cosmetic Industry:
    • Thickener: Used in lotions, creams, and gels to provide the desired consistency.
    • Film-forming Agent: Helps form a film on the skin for sustained release or moisturizing effects.
  4. Construction Industry:
    • Adhesives: Enhances the performance of tile adhesives, mortar, and other construction materials.
    • Water Retention: Improves water retention in cement-based products.
  5. Other Applications:
    • Paints and Coatings: Acts as a thickener and stabilizer in paints and coatings.
    • Paper and Textiles: Used in paper coatings and textile processing for various functional properties.

In general, HPMC is valued for its ability to form clear solutions, its non-ionic nature, and its stability across a range of pH levels.
