Moreover, HPMC's eco-friendly characteristics appeal to sustainable practices. As a plant-derived polymer, it aligns with the growing trend of using environmentally friendly materials in production. This compatibility with ecological standards makes HPMC a preferred choice for companies aiming to reduce their environmental footprint.

Applications

Moreover, the pH of the solution can significantly affect the solubility of HEC. Generally, HEC is stable across a wide pH range, which makes it versatile for various applications. However, extreme pH levels (either acidic or alkaline) can hydrolyze the ether linkages, leading to reduced molecular weight and, consequently, changes in viscosity and solubility profile.
