A Faster Way to Match the Right Additive to the Right Application
Use our recommended grade guidance to compare product directions across home care, personal care, and oral care formulations more efficiently.
From Product Awareness
to Practical Selection
Selecting the right additive often starts with one key question: which grade is more suitable for the intended application? In the daily chemical industry, different products require different formulation behavior — suspension, viscosity, rheology, texture, and paste structure all vary by system.
That is why a Recommended Grade Table is an important resource. It helps customers move from general product awareness to a more practical selection direction by connecting product categories with real application needs — built around HPMC, HEMC / MHEC, HEC, CMC, and Toothpaste Rheology Additives.
A Product List
Is Often Not Enough
Customers may know what application they are working on, but still need help narrowing down which product family or grade direction is more relevant.
A Clearer
Starting Point
This page is not meant to replace technical consultation. It is meant to give customers a clearer starting point — making the first stage of selection more structured and more efficient.
Five Core
Additive Families
The Recommended Grade Table is built around the core daily chemical additive portfolio — supporting performance across a wide range of formulation systems.

Different Applications,
Different Formulation Priorities
Home Care
Recommended grades may be compared according to viscosity support, suspension behavior, formulation consistency, and application compatibility.
Personal Care
Grade recommendations are more likely to be influenced by texture, smoothness, clarity, rheology balance, and overall product feel.
Oral Care
Recommended grades need to reflect rheology control, paste stability, moisture retention, and brushing performance — a dedicated product direction in this portfolio.
Simple, Practical,
Application-First
The Recommended Grade Table is intended to be simple and practical. Customers can use it starting from the target application rather than from chemistry alone.
Better Guidance
Before Direct Contact
When customers review recommended product directions before reaching out, conversations become more focused, more technical, and easier to move toward sampling or quotation.
Faster and More Informed
Additive Decisions
Our Recommended Grade Table is designed to help customers make faster and more informed decisions when evaluating daily chemical additives. By connecting product categories with application needs across home care, personal care, and oral care, it creates a clearer path from initial product interest to more practical selection.
If you are developing detergents, cleaners, sanitizers, shampoos, facial care products, or toothpaste systems, this page can help you identify a more relevant starting point before moving into technical discussion, testing, or inquiry.
