Product Description

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose(HEC)

Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdered solid, prepared by etherification of alkaline . Non-ionic soluble cellulose ethers. Because HEC has good characteristics of thickening, suspending, dispersing, emulsifying, bonding, filming, protecting moisture and providing protective colloid, it has been widely used in petroleum exploration, coatings, construction, medicine and textiles, papermaking, and macromolecules. Polymerization and other fields. 40 mesh sieving rate ≥99%;
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose ,is used as thickener, defensive colloid, normal water preservation agent and rheology modifier in different software like water-based paints, building components, essential oil discipline chemical compounds and private care products.It has good thickening, suspending, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming, water-protecting and providing protective colloid properties.

Hydroxyethyl cellulose HEC can be used in latex paints, water-based paints, etc.Hydroxyethyl cellulose HEC has the functions of thickening, water retention, isolation, suspension and so on.
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) has strong water retention capacity.HEC is an effective thickener and binder for cement mortar and mortar.Incorporating it into mortar can:1.Improve fluidity and construction performance,
2.Can prolong the evaporation time of water,
3.Improve the initial stage of concrete to avoid cracks.
4.Used for plastering plaster, bonding plaster, plaster putty can significantly improve its water retention and bonding strength.
