KimaCell® HPMC MP100MS is Daily chemical hydroxypropyl methylcellulose which is a white or slightly yellowish powder, and it is odorless, tasteless and non-toxic. It can be dissolved in cold water and mixed solvent of organic matter to form a transparent viscous solution. The water liquid has surface activity, high transparency, strong stability, and is not affected by pH when dissolved in water. It has thickening and antifreeze effects in shampoos and shower gels, and has water retention and good film-forming properties for hair and skin. With the sharp rise of basic raw materials, the use of cellulose (antifreeze thickener) in shampoo and shower gel can greatly reduce the cost and achieve the desired effect.
