Hydroxyethyl Cellulose HEC for Water-Based Paints

Hydroxyethylcellulose has excellent performance as a thickener, stabilizer, and construction performance improver in water-based paints. Its thickening effect is significant, increasing the viscosity of the coating and preventing sagging. At the same time, it can also improve the stability of coatings, prevent pigment settling and layering. Hydroxyethylcellulose improves construction performance, reduces surface tension, enhances wettability and leveling. As a natural polymer compound, it is non-toxic and harmless, contributing to environmental protection. With the growth of demand in the water-based paint market, the application prospects of hydroxyethyl cellulose are broad.
