Methyl cellulose is widely utilized in research focused on:
- Food Industry: Used as a thickening agent and emulsifier in various food products, enhancing texture and stability while being gluten-free.
- Pharmaceuticals: Acts as a binder and film-forming agent in tablet formulations, improving drug delivery and patient compliance.
- Cosmetics: Serves as a stabilizer and thickener in lotions and creams, providing a smooth texture and enhancing product performance.
- Construction: Functions as a water-retaining agent in cement and mortar, improving workability and extending the setting time for better application.
- Biotechnology: Used in cell culture media to provide a supportive environment for cell growth, particularly in tissue engineering applications.
