Hec Chemical Additives Makes Resins Easy to Process

Hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), chemical formula (C2H6O2) n, is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdered solid prepared by etherification reaction of alkaline cellulose and ethylene oxide (or chloroethanol), belonging to the non-ionic soluble cellulose ether class. Due to its excellent thickening, suspension, dispersion, emulsification, adhesion, film-forming, moisture protection, and provision of protective colloids, HEC has been widely used in fields such as petroleum extraction, coatings, construction, pharmaceuticals and food, textiles, papermaking, and polymer polymerization reactions
