HPMC for Paints and Coatings
Paints and coatings offer a smooth texture and vibrant colors, with high-quality options showing resistance to weather, sunlight, and rain. They are designed to be durable, resisting aging and cracking. Composed of pigments, binders, solvents, and additives, Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose(HPMC) is a key additive in these formulations.
In addition, HPMC increases the paint’s pH value by improving its non-ionic properties, ensuring stability and strength in various formulations.
HPMC Viscosity for Optimal Paint Performance
HPMC cellulose powder comes in varying viscosities for waterborne paints: high, medium, and low. Each type serves specific functions:
High Viscosity: Ideal for mortar paints, providing enhanced durability and protection.
Medium Viscosity: Suited for high pigment volume concentrations, improving consistency and performance.
Low viscosity: suitable for fluid coatings and helps improve the smoothness of the coating.
Solubility of HPMC in Water-Based Paints
HPMC cellulose provides excellent solubility in water-based paints, allowing for fast and efficient integration. This high solubility enhances color modification while achieving the desired thickening effect. Additionally, HPMC additives enable various color variants, contributing to versatile paint formulations and improved overall performance.
Thickening Properties of HPMC
HPMC is a versatile thickener widely used in paint and coating formulations for its ability to significantly enhance viscosity. This results in improved flow and leveling properties, contributing to a smoother application and finish. Beyond paints, HPMC serves as a water-binder and thickening agent in various industrial applications, including cosmetics, personal care products, building materials, and adhesives.

HPMC in Latex Paint
Latex paint, made of acrylic resin, benefits from Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) as a thickener. HPMC enhances viscosity, flow, and leveling, while preventing deposition and delamination. It also boosts pH and strengthens the paint’s stability and durability.
