Methyl cellulose is a water-soluble polymer known for its excellent water retention, thickening, and gelation properties, as well as its superior film-forming and adhesive characteristics. It is widely used as a water-retention agent and thickener in construction materials such as putties, mortars, and plasters. In the food industry, it serves as a thickener and gelling agent. Within pharmaceuticals, it functions as a disintegrant or binder in tablets and as an excipient in capsule formulations. Additionally, it acts as an adhesive in latex paints and coatings.
