Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC), a water-soluble non-ionic cellulose, offers thickening, water retention, adhesion, and film-forming properties. This product is specifically formulated as a binder for honeycomb ceramic carriers used in automotive exhaust purification systems. It dissolves completely in water and is ideal for extrusion molding applications. After high-temperature sintering, it decomposes cleanly into carbon dioxide and water, leaving no residues.
HPMC serves multiple functions across various industries:
Binder for Honeycomb Ceramic Substrates: Water-soluble support for extrusion; leaves no residue after sintering (decomposes to CO+HO), making it ideal for automotive exhaust purification carriers.
Dairy/Sauce Thickening (Food-Grade HPMC): Improves texture; acts as a gelatin alternative in vegan products.

Shanghai Prior Chemical Scientific And Technical Co.LTD. (Grade A Tax Credit) was established in 2016. Leveraging China North Industries Group Corporation (NORINCO GROUP) resources, the company trades military-industrial materials including hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), ethyl cellulose (EC), and nitrocellulose (NC).
The company independently manufactures integrated nail-fastening products and holds equity in ammonium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-NH4) production and marketing. It holds nearly 70% domestic market share in HPMC for automotive exhaust honeycomb ceramics.
