Overview of Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose
Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is a versatile cellulose derivative used as a thickener, film former, and stabilizer in gels, creams, shampoos, and mascara formulations. It gives the smoothest texture, clarity and controlled release, while remaining non-ionic, and is compatible with all surfactant systems.
In personal care, it creates luxurious gel textures and eye-safe films. Related products, such as Triethyl Citrate, Glycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Polysorbate 20, and Sorbitan Monooleate, enhance its performance in formulations.
ChemicalBull supplies high-purity Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose suitable for cosmetic and personal care-grade use.
