Cellulose Ether in Ceramics

HPMC has properties such as thickening, binding, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming, suspending, adsorbing, gelling, surface-active, retaining moisture and protective colloids.

HPMC ( 9004 65 3 ) is an environmentally friendly and efficient additive in industrial production, which solves various product problems for our customers.

HPMC for ceramic can provide excellent lubricity and workability, can fully provide the operability of ceramic product mold tires, and improve process efficiency.

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose for ceramics has very low ash content, which can make the ceramic blank mold have a very dense internal structure after calcination, and at the same time make the ceramic surface round and delicate.

In the new honeycomb ceramics, the lubricity, water retention and strength are given to the blanks.

In ceramic extrusion, inorganic substances such as cordierite are mixed with lubricants, plasticizers and water, and pressed through an ceramic extruder under high pressure and high temperature to form extrudates. This approach is useful when producing long, symmetrical products in a continuous process, such as the honeycomb structures of auto catalysts.

KimaCell® Cellulose ethers help improve water retention, lubricity and green strength.
