Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose HPMC is refined from cotton by alkalization, and propylene oxide and methyl chloride are used as etherifying agents to form a nonionic cellulose mixed ether through a series of reactions. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a nonionic cellulose ether that has a white appearance and is odorless and tasteless. The degree of substitution is generally 1.2-2.0. Its properties vary depending on the ratio of the methoxy group content and the hydroxypropyl group content.
Synthesis of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose:
The purified cotton cellulose was treated with an alkali solution at 35 to 40 ° C for half an hour, pressed, and the cellulose was pulverized at 35 ° C and appropriately aged so that the average degree of polymerization of the obtained alkali fibers was within the range required. The alkali fiber was placed in an etherification tank, and propylene oxide and methyl chloride were sequentially added thereto, and etherified at 50 to 80 ° C for 5 hours, and the maximum pressure was about 1.8 MPa. Then, an appropriate amount of hydrochloric acid and oxalic acid washings were added to hot water at 90 ° C to expand the volume. Dehydrated with a centrifuge. When the moisture content of the material is less than 60%, it is rinsed to neutral and then dried to less than 5% with a hot air stream of 130 °C. Finally, the finished product was obtained through a 20 mesh sieve.
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a nonionic cellulose ether with a white powder appearance, odorless and tasteless, soluble in water and most polar organic solvents, proper ratio of ethanol/water, propanol/water, dichloro Ethane and other insoluble in ether, acetone, anhydrous ethanol hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) has the properties of thermogel, swells in cold water to form a clear or slightly turbid colloidal solution, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose dissolves After heating in an aqueous solution, a gel is formed, which is dissolved after cooling. Different gel temperatures vary from product to specification. Solubility varies with viscosity. The lower the viscosity, the greater the solubility. There are some differences in the performance of HPMC of different specifications. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is not affected by the pH value in water. The aqueous solution has surface activity, high transparency and stable properties. It has the characteristics of thickening, bonding, dispersing, emulsifying, film forming, suspension, adsorption, gelation, surface activity, moisture retention and protective colloid. Particle size: 100 mesh pass rate is greater than 100%. Bulk density: 0.25-0.70g / (usually 0.4g / s), specific gravity 1.26-1.31. Color change temperature: 180-200 ° C, carbonization temperature: 280-300 ° C. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) has thickening ability, salt release, pH stability, water retention, dimensional stability, extensive enzyme resistance and excellent dispersibility. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, methyl cellulose can be used in building materials, coatings industry, synthetic resin, ceramic industry, medicine, food, textile, agriculture, household chemicals, etc.
