2. The role of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose in vitamins:
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is characterized by its unique structure in which hydroxypropyl and methyl groups are chemically linked to the cellulose backbone. This modification enhances its solubility in water and provides several desirable properties for its applications in the pharmaceutical and dietary supplement industries.
Methyl cellulose and HPMC are two types of cellulose-based polymers commonly used in building materials. However, Methyl Cellulose is gradually being replaced by HPMC due to the higher requirements in modern construction. In addition, some suppliers refer to methyl cellulose as the common name for hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and Hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose (HEMC). We will explore the difference between HPMC and HEMC in later articles.
