Product Description

Instantly Dissolves In Cold Water Pharmaceutical Grade High Purity Hydroxypropyl Cellulose

HPC (hydroxypropyl cellulose) is an important food additive (E463) in the food industry. It has multiple functions such as thickening, stabilizing, emulsifying, film forming, water retention and texture improvement, and is widely used in the processing and improvement of various foods.


Product Introduction

HPC, short for hydroxypropyl cellulose, is a non-ionic cellulose polymer produced from natural cellulose (such as cotton fiber and wood pulp) through an alkaline catalytic reaction with propylene oxide. Its chemical structure uses cellulose glucose units as the backbone, with some hydroxyl groups replaced by hydroxypropyl groups (-OCH₂CH(OH)CH₃). The degree of substitution (DS) is typically between 0.2 and 1.0, and the molecular weight ranges widely (from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands), allowing for adjustment according to requirements.

Main Functions:

  • Thickening and Stabilizing: Increases the viscosity of food systems, preventing stratification, sedimentation, and oil-water separation, keeping the product uniform and stable.
  • Film-forming Properties: Forms a transparent, flexible film on food surfaces for preservation, moisture retention, and enhanced gloss.
  • Moisture Retention and Hydration: Effectively locks in moisture, improving the texture and mouthfeel of food and extending shelf life.
  • Emulsification and Dispersion: Facilitates the uniform mixing of oil and water phases, improving the stability of emulsion-based foods.
  • Improved Processing Performance: Enhances dough extensibility and formability, reducing cracking and shrinkage during processing.

Advantages in food applications:

  • High safety: Meets food-grade standards, non-toxic, non-irritating, and safe for consumption.
  • Acid and alkali resistant, salt resistant: Stable under different pH conditions and not easily affected by electrolytes in food systems.
  • Good compatibility with other food additives: Can be used synergistically with starch, pectin, xanthan gum, etc., for better results.
  • Significant effects can be achieved with low addition amounts, resulting in high cost-effectiveness.
  • Does not easily cause retrogradation or deterioration, maintaining food quality for a long time.
