Features Of Ashland Culminal M HPC 100 Methyl Cellulose

  1. Highly purified, low-viscosity methyl cellulose derivative optimized for rapid hydration and uniform dispersion in aqueous systems.

  2. Excellent film-forming capability with good flexibility, clarity, and moisture barrier properties.

  3. Thermally reversible gelation behavior—forms weak gels upon heating and re-solubilizes upon cooling.

  4. pH-stable across a broad range (pH 3–11), ensuring compatibility with acidic and alkaline formulations.

  5. Low surface tension and superior air-entrainment control, supporting consistent rheology in sensitive applications.

Typical Applications Of Ashland Culminal M HPC 100 Methyl Cellulose

  1. Cement-based tile adhesives and grouts requiring extended open time and sag resistance.

  2. Water-based architectural coatings and interior paints for improved leveling and spatter resistance.

  3. Pharmaceutical immediate-release tablet binders and controlled-release matrix formers.

  4. Personal care formulations including hair gels and hand sanitizers for non-tacky, quick-drying films.

  5. Food-grade stabilizers in dairy alternatives and plant-based beverages for viscosity modulation and particle suspension.
