Q1: What is the difference between HPMC E5 and standard HPMC?

HPMC E5 has a higher methoxy content (28-30%) and viscosity (4000-6000 mPa·s), making it ideal for high-performance applications like tile adhesives and exterior renders. Standard HPMC (e.g., E3) has lower methoxy (25-28%) and viscosity (3000-4000 mPa·s), suitable for general-purpose use.

Q2: Is HPMC E5 safe for food-grade applications?

Yes! Our HPMC E5 is FDA-approved (21 CFR §172.874) and HACCP-certified, making it safe for food coatings, pharmaceuticals, and indirect food contact.

Q3: What is the lead time for bulk orders?

Standard orders (10MT+): 20-25 days after sample approval.
Express Service (under 5MT): 10-14 days.
Sample orders (3kg): 7 days.

Q4: Can you customize viscosity or methoxy content beyond the standard range?

Absolutely! We offer full OEM/ODM services. For example, we’ve produced HPMC E5 with viscosities up to 8000 mPa·s for high-end ceramic applications.

Q5: How do you ensure batch-to-batch consistency?

Every batch is tested for:

  • Viscosity: ±5% deviation
  • Methoxy Content: ±0.5%
  • Purity: ≥99% (HPLC)
  • Heavy Metals: <10ppm (ICP-OES)

We provide SGS test reports with every shipment.

Q6: Do you offer samples before bulk orders?

Yes! We provide 3kg samples for testing at no cost. Shipping fees apply for international orders.
