1.Product application

HPMC for food grade is widely used in food industry. For dairly drinking and seasonings, HPMC can thicken stabilize and improve taste. In addition, HPMC for food grade is also used in ice cream, bread, cake, biscuit, instant noodle and fast paste food for product molding, taste improvement, water retaining and tenacity strengthening. The products with high degree of substitution have good stability for acid and good thickening character.

2. Product advantage

1. Thickening: HPMC can produce high viscosity at low concentration. It also acts as lubricant.

2. Water retention: HPMC is a water binder, helps increase shelf life of food.

3. Suspending aid: HPMC acts as emulsifier and suspension stabilizer, particularly in icings to control ice crystal size.

4. Film forming: HPMC can produce a film on the surface of fried, eg. instant noodle and prevent absorption of excessive vegetable oil.

5. Chemical stability: HPMC is resistant to heat, light, mold and commonly used chemicals.

6. Physiologically inert: HPMC as a food additive has no caloric value can not be metabolized.
