USP/GMP Grade HPMC Hypromellose: Premium Excipient for Pharma Applications

NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to be a leading provider of high-quality pharmaceutical excipients, serving the global pharmaceutical industry with reliable and innovative solutions. Among our core offerings is Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC), also widely known as Hypromellose. This versatile cellulose ether is a cornerstone ingredient in numerous pharmaceutical formulations, valued for its inertness, safety, and multifunctional properties. Sourced from refined cotton fiber, our HPMC is a plant-based excipient, meeting the growing demand for natural-origin pharmaceutical ingredients.

Our commitment to quality is paramount, particularly for products destined for pharmaceutical use. The HPMC we supply adheres strictly to the standards set forth by major pharmacopeias, including being available in USP Grade and produced under GMP Certified conditions. This ensures that our HPMC meets the rigorous requirements for identity, strength, quality, and purity demanded by regulatory bodies worldwide. Furthermore, our product range is supported by certifications such as ISO 9001, Halal, and Kosher Pareve, confirming our adherence to diverse quality management and dietary standards. Our HPMC is also verified as BSE-free, Gluten Free, and Non-GMO, providing additional assurance for various formulation needs.

HPMC is a non-ionic, water-soluble polymer that exhibits a range of functional properties essential for drug formulation. It is soluble in cold water, forming clear to slightly turbid colloidal solutions with varying viscosities depending on the specific grade. Key properties include thickening, bonding, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming, suspending, gelling, moisture retention, and acting as a protective colloid. These characteristics make HPMC indispensable across various dosage forms.

In tablet formulations, HPMC serves multiple critical roles. As a binder, it provides mechanical strength and integrity to compressed tablets, preventing chipping and breaking. It is also widely used as a controlled-release matrix former. By swelling and gelling in the presence of aqueous media, HPMC can regulate the rate at which the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is released from the tablet, allowing for extended or targeted drug delivery profiles. This capability is vital for developing once-daily formulations and improving patient compliance. Additionally, HPMC can function as a disintegrant retardant and lubricant in certain tablet matrix systems.

Another significant application is in tablet film coating. HPMC's excellent film-forming properties result in smooth, durable, and aesthetically pleasing coatings. These coatings can mask unpleasant tastes or odors of APIs, protect moisture-sensitive drugs from degradation, improve swallowability, and contribute to product identification through color or print. Our various grades of HPMC are tailored to provide optimal film properties, including tensile strength, elasticity, and adhesion.

HPMC is also a preferred material for manufacturing empty capsules, particularly for plant-based or vegetarian options. Capsules made from HPMC offer stability, ease of swallowing, and are suitable for a wide range of fill materials, including powders, granules, and semi-solids. The natural origin of the refined cotton fiber used in HPMC production aligns with consumer preferences for plant-derived pharmaceutical products.

In liquid pharmaceutical preparations, such as ophthalmic solutions and artificial tears, HPMC is employed as a thickening agent. By increasing the viscosity of eye drops, HPMC extends the contact time of the medication with the eye surface, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy and providing prolonged relief for conditions like dry eye. It also helps stabilize suspensions and emulsions in various liquid formulations.

The versatility of HPMC extends beyond pharmaceuticals to applications in food, construction, and detergent industries, leveraging its thickening, water retention, and stabilizing properties. However, our focus at NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. remains strongly on providing pharmaceutical grade HPMC that meets the stringent purity and performance requirements of drug manufacturers.

We offer a comprehensive range of HPMC viscosity grades, categorized by their substitution types and viscosity levels, such as the E and K series (e.g., E3, E5, E6, E15, E50, E4M, K4M, K100M, K100). These different grades provide formulators with the flexibility to select the ideal polymer properties required for specific applications, whether it is low viscosity for coatings or high viscosity for controlled-release matrices or thickening solutions. Our technical team is available to provide support and guidance in selecting the most suitable HPMC grade for your formulation challenges.

Choosing the right excipient is crucial for the success and safety of pharmaceutical products. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is dedicated to being a reliable partner for pharmaceutical companies worldwide. We ensure consistent product quality, batch-to-batch reproducibility, and timely delivery to support your production schedules.
