ALL NATURAL? IS HPMC (E464) A CREDIBLE ALTERNATIVE TO GELATIN?
Thickening:
Answer: HPMC can be divided into instant type and hot dissolve type, instant products, in cold water quickly dispersed, disappeared in water, at this time the liquid has no viscosity, because HPMC is just dispersed in water, no real dissolution. After about 2 minutes, the viscosity of the liquid gradually increases, forming a transparent, sticky gel. Hot soluble products, in cold water, can quickly disperse in hot water, disappear in hot water, when the temperature drops to a certain temperature, viscosity slowly appear, until the formation of transparent viscous colloid. Hot soluble type can only be used in putty powder and mortar, in liquid glue and paint, there will be clumping phenomenon, can not be used. Instant type, a wide range of applications, in putty powder and mortar, as well as liquid glue and paint, can be used, there is no taboo。
