Product Description

HYDROXYETHY CELLULOSE 
Coating Grade

Brief Introduction :

Hydroxyethy Cellulose(HEC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether . It is easily dispersed and dissolved in water to produce solution of high viscosity. HEC is used as a viscosity and rheology modifier, protective colloid, water retention agent, stabilizer and suspending agent, particularly in those applications where a non-ionic material is desired. The product has higher and more uniform degree of substitution, improved the enzyme resistance.

Application
Hydroxyethy Cellulose(HEC) is recommended as thickening agent in water-based paint. It provides excellent thickening efficiency, color development, open time, and superior resistance to biodegradation. It also play a role in the emulsion, dispersion, stability and water retention. The coating has good rheological properties at different shear rates, and has good workability and leveling, not easy to drop, good splash and sag resistance.

Packaging
25kg paper bags with PE inner. 20'FCL:15MT with pallets or 16MT without pallets.

Storage and Shelf Life
3 years under cool, dry conditions in original packaging away from heat sources. It is recommended to use the product in rotation on a first-in first-out basis.
