Methyl cellulose (or methylcellulose) is a chemical compound derived from cellulose. It is sold under a variety of trade names and is used as a thickener and emulsifier in various food and cosmetic products, and also as a bulk-forming laxative. Like cellulose, it is not digestible, not toxic, and not an allergen.

Methylcellulose is gaining a grip on initiatives working in various sectors. A crucial reason for this acceptance of methylcellulose is its non-allergic and non-irritating nature. At the same time, this chemical embraces zero toxicity. The global methyl cellulose market is emerging on the back of augmented demand from the food and beverages industry. A key reason for this development is nurturing applications of methylcellulose in food as an emulsifier, thickener, stabilizer, binder, and gelling agent.

Thickener and emulsifier

Methyl cellulose is very occasionally added to hair shampoos, toothpastes and liquid soaps, to generate their characteristic thick consistency. This is also done for foods, for example, ice cream or croquette. Methyl cellulose is also an important emulsifier, preventing the separation of two mixed liquids because it is an emulsion stabilizer.

Methyl cellulose is also used as a paint rheological modifier to prevent paint sagging.

Lubricant

Methyl cellulose may be used in personal lubricant.

Construction materials

Methyl cellulose finds a major application as a performance additive in construction materials.

Glue and binder

Methyl cellulose can be employed as a mild glue which can be washed away with water. This may be used in the fixing of delicate pieces of art as well as in book conservation to loosen and clean off old glue from spines and book boards.

Methyl cellulose is the main ingredient in many wallpaper pastes. It is also used as a binder in pastel crayons and also as a binder in medications.

Paper and textile sizing

Methyl cellulose is used as sizing in the production of papers and textiles as it protects the fibers from absorbing water or oil.

Bacterial and protozoal motility inhibitor

Aqueous methyl cellulose solutions have been used to slow bacterial and protozoal cell motility for closer inspection. Changing the amount of methyl cellulose in the solution permits the adjustment of the solution's viscosity.

Chemistry

It is a hydrophilic white powder in pure form and dissolves in cold (but not in hot) water, forming a clear viscous solution or gel.

Methyl cellulose is used as a buffer additive in capillary electrophoresis to control electroosmotic flow for improved separations.
