Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether can impart unique properties to cement and gypsum based products. It has the similar
chemical structure with Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose(HPMC) that not only provide Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose
(HPMC)-like function, but also has good compatibility with other building additives. In combination with Hydroxypropyl
Methylcellulose(HPMC), Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether can play a better thickening effect, with better crack resistance and
mprove workability. And by adding starch ether, the cost of the mortar formulation can be significantly reduced.

Hydroxypropyl starch ether (HPS) is a natural plant-based material. It is a white fine powder obtained by
modification, highly etherification reaction, and then spray drying, without plasticizer. It is completely
different from ordinary starch or modified starch.
★ Good fast thickening ability; some water retention proprety.
★ The dosage is small.The extremely low addition amount will achieve a high effect.
★ Improve the material's resistance to attenuation.
★ Improve the material's operability and make the operation smoother.
★ Extend the opening time of the material.
1.Food Industry:Hydroxypropyl starch can be used as thickening agent, suspension agent, adhesive
2.Papermaking Industry:Hydroxypropyl starch as paper internal sizing, surface sizing, to make printing ink bright, to make
niform, to make the film smooth, to reduce ink consumption, and have a certain ability to do hair.
