Product Description
CAS NO.:9004-62-0

Other names: Cellulose ether, hydroxyethyl ether; Hydroxyethylcellulose; 2-Hydroxyethyl cellulose; Hyetellose;

Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdered solid, prepared by etherification of alkaline cellulose and ethylene oxide (or chloroethanol). 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.
