Useful:
  • Description Hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) is a derivative of cellulose being soluble in both water and organic acid. It is excellent in trapping water and preventing water loss. It can be used to treat diseases associated with insufficient tear production such as keratoconjunctivitis sicca, recurrent corneal erosions, decreased corneal sensitivity, and exposure and neuroparalytic keratitis. It is also used as a lubricant of artificial eyes. It can also be used as a thickener, an emulsion stabilizer and binder. Moreover, it can be used as a sieving matrix for DNA separation through capillary and microchip electrophoresis. It is also the major ingredient of Cellugel, which is used in book conservation. Hydroxypropyl cellulose is a cellulose ether containing hydroxypropyl substitution. It occurs as a white powder. It is soluble in water and in certain organic solvents. It may contain a suitable anticaking agent.
  • Uses Hydroxypropyl Cellulose is a gum that is nonionic water-soluble cellulose, obtained from the reaction of alkali cellulose with propyl- ene oxide at high temperatures and pressures. it is soluble in water below 40°c, is precipitated as a floc between 40°c and 45°c, and is insoluble above 45°c. the precipitation is reversible with the origi- nal viscosity being restored upon cooling below 40°c and stirring. it is used in whipped toppings as a stabilizing and foaming aid; in edible food coatings as a glaze and oil/oxygen barrier; and in fabri- cated foods as a binder. typical usage level is 0.05–1.0%. Hydroxypropyl Cellulose is used in the synthesis of nanoparticle carriers for drug delivery. As emulsifier, stabilizer, whipping aid, protective colloid, film former or thickener in foods; as binder in ceramics and glazes; in hair and cosmetic Preparations; in vacuum-formed containers and blow-molded bottles; as suspending agent in PVC polymerization. Pharmaceutic aid (tablet coating agent).
  • Therapeutic Function Topical protectant, Ophthalmic vehicle
