HPMC (Type II,Viscosity:100000mPa.s)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
HPMC (Hypromellose; (Hydroxypropyl)methyl cellulose; Celacol HPM 5000) (Type II,Viscosity:100000mPa.s) is a non-ionic polymer obtained via synthetic modification of cellulose. As a hydrophilic matrix material, HPMC prolongs drug release through non-Fickian diffusion, including the diffusion of drugs in the hydrated matrix and the polymer relaxation process.

Biological Activity
The viscosity grade of HPMC significantly affects drug release: lower viscosity leads to faster release, while higher viscosity results in slower release[1].
HPMC is used as an alternative material for hard capsule shells to replace traditional animal-derived gelatin[2].
