Hydroxyethyl cellulose ether (HEC), chemical formula (C2H6O2) n, is a non-ionic soluble cellulose ether formed by etherification of alkaline cellulose and ethylene oxide (or chlorohydrin). It is a white or light yellow , Odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdery solid.
Hydroxyethyl cellulose adopts the world’s leading new solvent production process, and uses high-quality refined cotton and wood pulp with high α-cellulose content as raw materials to provide you with various viscosity specifications, high substitution, high purity, and high light transmittance and biological stability.
Products are widely used in coatings, daily chemicals and other fields. HEC is mainly used as a rheology additive for water-soluble products. Used in daily chemical products such as toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, hand sanitizer, shoe polish, etc., it has the function of thickening and preventing the precipitation of insoluble matter. Hydroxyethyl cellulose ether hec, cas number 9004-62-0, is a chemical additive and a raw material for the production of cosmetics.
