What is Methocel

Methocel (methylcellulose) is purified cellulose. To be used in afood applications where a thickener, stabiliser, or dispersant is required. Methocel dissolves in cold water and gels in hot water. It has the unique ability to form a gel when heated above 45ºC which will then return to a liquid state upon cooling (approx 15ºC). Perfect for creating hot gels which melt in the mouth. It can also be used to make clear, solid and flexible films which are produced by allowing a Methocel solution to dry out at a low temperature, this prevents the solution from gelling. Other applications include emulsification and suspension.
