Liquid detergent can be considered an essential item in our daily life. How good or bad a liquid detergent is affects how well we clean our clothes. How can we make better liquid detergents? Research shows that hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, as a thickening ingredient, plays an important role in the manufacturing process of liquid detergents. Here’s how Kemox teaches you how to make better liquid detergent.
Step 1: Organise the essentials
First, let’s prepare the raw materials. Since we’re using HPMC to make a liquid detergent this time, we’ll need 1.5 grams of Kemox Detergent HPMC and 400 grams of water. Think of HPMC as the secret ingredient that will take the liquid detergent to a whole new level, Measure them out precisely for the best results.

Next, pour 1.5 grams of HPMC into 400 grams of water. We need to keep stirring until it is completely mixed. This step is very important because Kemox HPMC has excellent water retention and thickening ability, as well as good dispersion in cold water. We can see the HPMC slowly blend in the water.
Step 3: Adding other ingredients
After the HPMC is mixed with the water, we gradually add the other ingredients needed for the liquid detergent. As shown in the video, various ingredients including sodium sulfate, fragrances, etc. are added. Again, these ingredients need to be mixed well. It is important to note that the ingredients and proportions vary from one type of liquid detergent to another. Contact Kemox if you would like more detailed information on the ingredients and proportions added to liquid detergents.
