HPMC for Food additives
Chemical Name:Hydroxypropyl Methyl cellulose (HPMC)
CAS no. :9004-67-5
Technical requirements:HPMC food ingredients conforms to the standards of USP/NF,
EP and 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia
Note: Determination condition: viscosity 2% aqueous solution at 20°C
The main performance of food additives grade HPMC
Enzyme resistance: enzyme resistance is far better than starch, long-term efficiency is excellent;
Adhesion performance: in the effective dosage of the condition can play the best adhesion strength, at the same time can provide moisture and release taste;
Cold water solubility: HPMC is easy to hydrate very quickly at lower temperature;
Emulsifying performance: HPMC can reduce interfacial tension and reduce the accumulation of oil droplets to obtain better emulsifying stability;
HPMC ingredient Application field in food additives
1. Creamed cream (baked goods)
Improve baking volume, improve appearance, make texture more uniform;
Improve water retention and water distribution, thus prolonging storage life;
Improve the shape and texture of the product without increasing its toughness;
Superior adhesion to improve the strength and elasticity of flour products;
2. Plant meat (artificial meat)
Security;
Can effectively bond all kinds of ingredients together to ensure the
integrity of shape and appearance;
Having a hardness and taste similar to real meat;
3. Beverages and dairy products
Provides suspension aid over a wide temperature range without creating a sticky taste;
In instant coffee, HPMC can quickly produce stable foam;
Compatible with alcoholic beverages;
Provides a thick consistency for milk ice cream drinks without obscuring
the taste of the drink;Acid stability;
4. Quick-frozen and fried food
With excellent adhesion, can replace many other adhesives;
Retain original shape during processing, cooking, transportation, storage, repeated freezing/thawing;
Reduces the amount of oil absorbed during frying and helps food retain its original moisture;
5. Protein casings
Easy to shape in meat products, storage and cooking frying process is not easy to break;
Safety, improve taste, good transparency;
High air permeability and moisture permeability, completely preserve its fragrance, prolong the shelf life;Retain the original moisture;
6. Dessert additives
Provide good water retention, can help form fine and uniform ice crystal, make the taste better;
HPMC has foam stability and emulsification performance, so HPMC can improve the situation of dessert overflow;
Excellent foam stability when frozen/thawed;
HPMC can prevent dehydration and shrinkage and greatly prolong the storage period of dessert flowers.
7, seasoning agent
Unique thermal gel properties can maintain food stability
over a wide temperature range;Can quickly hydrate,
is an excellent thickener and stabilizer;With emulsifying
properties, can avoid food oil deposition durin
