MC, HPMC and HEMC
1.Structural formula

R=-H,-CH3,-CH2CH(OH)CH3,-CH2CH2OH
N=degree of Polymerzation
2.Introduction
MC, HPMC and HEMC are non-ionic cellulose ethers produced
from natural high molecular cellulose through series
of chemical changes. They are characterized by the solubility
in water, water retention, non-ionic type, stable PH
value, surface activity, reversibility from gelling
to solving at different temperature, thickening, binding,
film-forming, lubricating and mold resistance. Due to
all these special properties, they are widely applied
for thickening, gelling, dispersing, stabilizing, water
retaining and mixing improving in industries like building
material, painting, synthetic resin, porcelain, medicine,
food, textile, agriculture, cosmetics, cosmetics and
tobacco.
