Features Of H-HPC High Substituted Hydroxypropyl Cellulose

  1. High degree of substitution (DS > 2.5) ensures excellent water solubility across broad pH and ionic strength ranges.

  2. Superior thermal stability with gelation onset above 90 °C, enabling high-temperature processing compatibility.

  3. Low viscosity at high concentrations supports efficient pumping, mixing, and uniform film formation in coating applications.

  4. Non-ionic nature prevents interaction with charged APIs or excipients, enhancing formulation stability in pharmaceutical systems.

  5. USP/NF and EP compliant grade available, meeting stringent regulatory requirements for oral and topical dosage forms.

Typical Applications Of H-HPC High Substituted Hydroxypropyl Cellulose

  1. Sustained-release matrix tablets and hot-melt extrusion (HME) carriers in oral solid dosage forms.

  2. Viscosity modifier and stabilizer in ophthalmic solutions and gels requiring non-irritating, mucoadhesive performance.

  3. Binders and film formers in water-based industrial coatings and architectural paints.

  4. Thickening agent in personal care formulations including shampoos, conditioners, and hand sanitizers.

  5. Dispersing aid and protective colloid in pigment dispersions and ceramic slip casting processes.
