METHOCEL™ Cellulose Ethers – versatile excipients in continuous production and many other applications
Did you know that the METHOCEL™ products have been in continuous production for more than 70 years with facilities and deep polymer expertise from our experts located around the globe. Find out more about what this polymer delivers in pharma applications.
METHOCEL™ cellulose ethers are water-soluble polymers derived from cellulose. The METHOCEL™ product range encompasses methylcellulose and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (hypromellose) – each available in different grades to address a wide range of applications including tablet coatings, granulation, controlled release, drug layering, vegetarian hard-shell capsules and amorphous drug stabilization.
Reliable and multi-functional
METHOCEL™ products have been in continuous production for more than 70 years with production facilities and deep product expertise located around the globe.
The METHOCEL™ Premium family of water-soluble polymers for pharmaceutical applications offers exceptional flexibility and a broad range of properties typically not found in other water-soluble polymers. In many applications, two, three or even more ingredients may be needed to do the same job performed by one METHOCEL™ product. That means one ingredient can do the job of many, saving money and time.
