2. Pure HPMC aqueous solution has high light transmittance and water retention rate ≥97%. Adulterated HPMC aqueous solution is turbid, water retention rate is difficult to reach 80%.


3. Pure HPMC should not smell ammonia, starch and alcohols; Adulterated HPMC can often smell all kinds of taste, even if tasteless, will feel heavy.
