Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Vis-HPM, Industrial Grade
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), is non ionic cellulose ether, and a modified cellulose ether derivatives polymer that is off-white in color and considered safe for human consumption.
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdery solid, prepared by etherification of basic cellulose and ethylene oxide (or chloroethanol) Ionic soluble cellulose ethers.

Categories | Examples | Functions |
Oilfield | Drilling, cementing, workover, completion, fracturing operations | High viscosity grade: act as viscosifier for completion fluid and workover fluid in oilfield, imparts higher flowability and stability, increases mud’s carrying ability, extends the borer’s service life.
Low viscosity grade: perform as water-loss control agent in the low solid completing and cementing fluids, prevent large amount of water from mud into oil reservoirs, improve production ability from oil reservoirs. |
Construction | concrete mixes, newly mixed mortar, gypsum, plaster | Act as water-retention agent. Prolongs plaster’s curing and opening time, reduces skinning, slipping and sagging, increases production rate and plaster’s volume to save raw materials. |
