Amidst growing demand for high-performance and eco-friendly cleaning solutions, cellulose ether has emerged as a breakthrough functional additive. Botai’s detergent-grade specialty cellulose ether, Vamcell® MPD9288(S), is driving innovation in the household chemicals industry with its exceptional thickening, dispersing, and mildness properties.
Technical Highlights: Cold-Water Solubility & Uncompromised Stability
Vamcell® MPD9288(S)—a high-viscosity, non-ionic hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) supplied as a white free-flowing powder—delivers three transformative advantages:
Rapid Cold-Water Hydration: Dissolves efficiently without heating, reducing energy consumption;
Powerful Thickening & Emulsification: Stabilizes oil-in-water emulsions to enhance grease soil encapsulation;
Broad Formulation Compatibility: Odorless/tasteless profile preserves fragrance integrity with wide pH tolerance.
Applications: Enabling Sustainable Cleaning Innovations
The product excels in advanced detergent formulations:
✅ Concentrated Laundry Liquids: Maintains viscosity stability in cold water, preventing phase separation;
✅ Foaming Hand Soaps: Enhanced foam density through micro-emulsification, reducing surfactant dosage;
✅ Eco-Friendly Dishwashing Liquids: Biodegradable properties comply with EU Regulation EC 648/2004.
Market Impact: Solving Industry Challenges
Botai’s Technical Director highlighted: “MPD9288(S) addresses formulation failures in high-mineral water regions through its salt tolerance and hardness resistance. Its hydroxypropyl methyl substituents create a protective film during cleaning, reducing skin irritation—fulfilling the core need for effective yet mild cleaning.”
