Average molecular weight approximately 100,000 CAS RN®: 9004-64-2.
Viscosity: Dissolve 5.0 g of Hydroxypropyl Cellulose with 95.0 mL of water by stirring. If necessary, centrifuge the solution to expel any entrapped air bubbles. Determine the viscosity of the solution as directed in Viscosity—Rotational Methods 〈912〉 at 25 ± 0.1°. The viscosity is between 75 and 150 centipoises.
