LANDU: Your Trusted HPMC Manufacturer

What is HPMC Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose?

HPMC falls into the category of non-ionic cellulose ethers. It is produced by chemically modifying natural cellulose from wood or cotton, starting with methylcellulose as a base material. By adding hydroxypropyl groups (-OCH₂CHOHCH₂), HPMC takes on the combined properties of both methyl and hydroxypropyl substituents. This structure gives it better solubility, higher gelation temperature, and improved stability in real-world applications.

LANDU Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose(HPMC) Grades

1. Non-surface cured HPMC

Non-surface-treated HPMC can dissolve directly in water immediately, forming a viscous solution. It is suitable for applications requiring instant thickness or binding, such as ceramic tile adhesive, wall putty, EIFS systems, and self-leveling compounds.

2. Surface-treated HPMC

Surface-treated HPMC is modified to delay its dissolution in water. This treatment is applied to control the hydration rate, making it suitable for applications where delayed solubility is needed for better performance, such as personal care and home care detergents.

High-quality Innovation and R&D Capability

LANDU, a leading cellulose ether manufacturer partnering with global industry leaders, dedicates itself to excellence in quality, in-house innovation, and cutting-edge R&D.

We are certified by ISO 9001 and EU REACH certification, with 11 patents and 4 utility patents. LANDU owns an independent R&D Center that does the physical and chemical tests for every batch of raw materials and finished products to ensure the stable and consistent quality of our products.

How does LANDU grade its construction HPMC?

LANDERCOLL® HPMC is graded by viscosity, dissolution speed, and water retention performance. We match each grade to specific applications like tile adhesive, wall putty, or EIFS mortar for optimal results.

Why is LANDU HPMC powder more compact than others?

Our powder density is controlled by a specialized milling process. This improves handling and reduces dust, while keeping all core performance properties fully intact.

Surface-treated vs. non-treated HPMC – which one should I use?

Surface-treated grades disperse faster in cold water, making them ideal for high-speed mixing. Non-treated grades are better for low-shear applications where delayed dissolution is needed.

Is HPMC safe for construction workers and the environment?

Yes. LANDU HPMC is non-toxic, REACH-registered, and free of harmful solvents. It’s widely used in Europe with no known health risks when handled normally.

Where does LANDU source its HPMC raw materials?

We use high-quality cotton linter and wood pulp from certified suppliers. The full production process is controlled in-house to ensure consistent purity and performance.

What does HPMC actually do in mortar and plasters?

It mainly retains water, thickens the mix, improves workability, and prevents sagging. This gives you more time to apply the material without it drying out too fast.

Are LANDU HPMC products certified for use in Europe?

Yes. All LANDERCOLL® grades meet EU REACH requirements and are produced under ISO 9001 quality control, suitable for European construction standards.

What’s the right HPMC dosage for my tile adhesive?

Typical addition rates are 0.2–0.5% of the total dry mix. We can provide tailored recommendations based on your specific formulation and local climate conditions.

Why do I need HPMC in my building materials at all?

Without it, mortar would dry too fast, crack easily, and be hard to work with. HPMC ensures consistent results, better adhesion, and longer open time.

What affects the gel temperature of HPMC, and does it matter?

Gel temperature depends on methoxyl and hydroxypropyl content. For exterior work, we recommend grades with higher gel temperatures to resist heat-related performance drops.
