Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC), chemical formula (C2H6O2)N, is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdery solid. Since HEC has good properties of thickening, suspending, dispersing, emulsifying, bonding, film-forming, protecting moisture and providing protective colloid, it has been widely used in oil exploration, coatings, construction, medicine, food, textile, papermaking and polymer Polymerization and other fields. Hydroxyethyl Cellulose Ether can be used in construction products such as concrete mixes, fresh mortar, gypsum plaster or other cements, etc., to retain water during construction before they set and harden. In addition to improving the water retention of building products, hydroxyethyl cellulose also prolongs the correction and open time of plaster or mastic. Can reduce skinning, slipping and sagging. Thus, the construction performance can be improved, the work efficiency can be increased, and time can be saved. At the same time, the capacity expansion rate of the stucco can be improved, thereby saving raw materials.

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a natural polymer material cellulose as raw material.
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose Chemical Additives can be dissolved in cold water to form a transparent, viscous solution.
Application
1.Hydroxyethyl cellulose is generally used as a thickener, protective agent, adhesive, stabilizer, and additive for the preparation of emulsions, jellies, ointments, lotions, eye drops, suppositories, and tablets.
2.Hydroxyethyl cellulose is used as a sizing agent in the textile industry, as an auxiliary agent for bonding, thickening, emulsifying, and stabilizing in the electronics and light industry sectors.
3.Hydroxyethyl cellulose is used as surfactant, colloidal protective agent, emulsification stabilizer for vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate and other emulsions, as well as viscosifier, dispersant and dispersion stabilizer for latex.
4.Hydroxyethyl cellulose is widely used in printing and dyeing, textile, papermaking, medicine, sanitation, food, cigarette, pesticide and fire extinguishing agent, etc.
Why Choose Us
