FAQS on hydroxypropyl methylcellulose hypromellose

Q: What is the difference between hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and hypromellose?

A: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and hypromellose are the same compound. The term "hypromellose" is the official USP (United States Pharmacopeia) name, while "HPMC" is the common abbreviation used in industrial and pharmaceutical contexts.

Q: What are common applications of hypromellose hydroxypropyl methylcellulose?

A: Hypromellose/HPMC is widely used as a thickener, binder, and film-forming agent. Key applications include pharmaceutical tablets, ophthalmic solutions, construction materials, and food products requiring viscosity control.

Q: How do hypromellose grades differ in performance?

A: Hypromellose grades vary in viscosity, molecular weight, and substitution levels. These differences affect solubility, gelation temperature, and mechanical properties, making specific grades suitable for applications like sustained-release drugs or cement-based mortars.

Q: Is hydroxypropyl methylcellulose hypromellose safe for pharmaceutical use?

A: Yes, hypromellose/HPMC is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by regulatory agencies. It's non-toxic, non-irritating, and widely used in oral, topical, and ocular medications due to its inert nature and biocompatibility.

Q: How to select the right hypromellose grade for my formulation?

A: Choose based on required viscosity, gelation temperature, and dissolution rate. Manufacturers provide technical datasheets specifying grade properties - for example, lower viscosity grades suit sprays, while higher grades work for extended-release tablets.
