Product Introduction<\/span><\/h2>\n

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), also known as hypromellose, is a semisynthetic, inert, viscoelastic polymer. It is a derivative of natural cellulose, typically sourced from plant materials like wood pulp or cotton fibers. HPMC is produced by chemically treating cellulose with methyl chloride and propylene oxide.<\/p>\n
