Description
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose 100000 cps (HEC)
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose 100000 cps (HEC) (CAS 9004-62-0, molecular formula HEC) is a coatings raw material used by paint, ink and adhesive formulators who need consistent dispersion, opacity and rheology from drum to drum. China Chemicals supplies it at Purity 98% min in pack sizes from 1 kg through to 500 kg Pallet, so laboratory trial quantities and full production volumes can be sourced from the same specification.
It is also traded as HEC, Cellosize, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Natrosol. Every consignment ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and the current Safety Data Sheet, and material is stored and picked under stock rotation so you receive product well inside its shelf life.
Typical applications
- Thickener and rheology modifier in emulsion paint
- Protective colloid in emulsion polymerisation
- Water retention in tile adhesive and cement render
- Thickener in shampoo and personal care products
- Fluid loss control in oilfield drilling
