Products Description

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is nonionic soluble cellulose ethers, both soluble in hot and cold water. Hydroxyethyl Cellulose is a white free-flowing granular powder, treated from the alkali cellulose and ethylene oxide by etherification, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose has been widely used in paint and coating, oil drilling ,pharma, food, textile, paper-making, PVC and other application fields. It has good thickening, suspending, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming, water-protecting and providing protective colloid properties.CAS NO.:9004-62-0

3.Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) Applications:

In water based paint,hydroxyethyl cellulose HEC plays a role of dispersing and protecting gels,enhancing reaction stability of agglomerate system,ensuring homogeneous distribution of pigment and stuffing, and providing effect of thickening, improving fluidity.

In oil drilling,it is used as stabilizer and thickening agent, lubricating agent for well drilling,completing and consolidating to give slurry a good fluidity and stability.

In construction,HEC can be used as thickening agent and cohesive agent to improve the fluidity and workability,increase initial gelling strength and avoid cracking.

In brushing and cohering plaster,it may obviously raise water-holding and coherence strength.

In daily-use chemical such as toothpaste it gives a good physical and chemical property,making it good in shape,long period of storage, hard be dry and permeated.

In cosmetic field,it can increase material density, adding lubrication and smoothness.

Besides,it has wide application in ink, textile dyeing & printing,paper making, pharmaceuticals, food, agriculture etc.
