AeroWhip™ hydroxypropylcellulose
Odor: odorless
Use: AeroWhip 630 hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) is an optimized grade of HPC for stabilizing dairy and nondairy whipped toppings. In nondairy whipped toppings, AeroWhip 630 HPC creates stiff foams, increases overrun and controls syneresis. For dairy whipping creams, the amount of milk fat can be reduced significantly, leading to a healthier and more cost-effective product with a creamy mouthfeel. AeroWhip 630 HPC is compatible with common emulsifier and stabilizer ingredients.
Ashland
Klucel™ hydroxypropylcellulose
Odor: odorless
Use: Klucel hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) is a nonionic water-soluble cellulose ether with a remarkable combination of properties. It combines organic solvent solubility, thermoplasticity and surface activity with the aqueous thickening and stabilizing properties characteristic of other water-soluble cellulose polymers available from Ashland. Klucel HPC films are flexible without plasticizers and non-tacky at high humidity.
Ashland
PrimaFlo™ HP22 polymer solution
Odor: odorless
Use: PrimaFlo HP22 polymer solution is an aqueous solution of hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) developed specifically for use as a film-former in personal care formulations. It is fully compatible with hydro-alcoholic systems. Typical use levels are 2 to 5 percent (wet basis). The benefit of PrimaFlo HPC versus Klucel™ hydroxypropylcellulose is that PrimaFlo is ready to use, saving the time and cost of dissolving.

Notes:
component of contact lens wetting solutions. Hydroxypropyl cellulose (cellulose, 2-hydroxypropyl ether) is a derivative of cellulose with both water solubility and organic solubility. Hydroxypropyl cellulose acts to stabilize and thicken the precorneal tear film and prolong the tear film breakup time which is usually accelerated in patients with dry eye states. Hydroxypropyl cellulose also acts to lubricate and protect the eye. Hydroxypropyl cellulose usually reduces the signs and symptoms resulting from moderate to severe dry eye syndromes, such as conjunctival hyperemia, corneal and conjunctival staining with rose bengal, exudation, itching, burning, foreign body sensation, smarting, photophobia, dryness and blurred or cloudy vision. Progressive visual deterioration which occurs in some patients may be retarded, halted, or sometimes reversed.
