Celotech’s Celopro HEB Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a high-performance thickener specially designed for water-based paints and coatings, offering:
✔ Superior Thickening Efficiency – Provides optimal viscosity control for latex paints, acrylic coatings, and decorative finishes
✔ Low-Dust Formulation – Improves workplace safety and reduces processing challenges during production
✔ Enhanced Mold Resistance – Extends shelf life and maintains film integrity in humid conditions
✔ Excellent Compatibility – Works seamlessly with pigments, dispersants, and other additives
Celopro® HEB6000S is a low-dust, non-ionic Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) specifically designed for water-based paints and coatings. With a viscosity of around 60,000 mPa·s (2% solution, Brookfield RV, 25°C), it offers excellent thickening efficiency, stability, and ease of incorporation, making it an ideal rheology modifier for modern architectural and industrial coating systems.
Celopro® HEB6000S is ideal for:
Interior and exterior architectural paints (emulsion paints)
Silicate, acrylic, and styrene-acrylic based waterborne systems
Industrial coatings and primers
Textured paints and putties
With its low-dust feature, reliable performance, and high versatility, Celopro® HEB6000S helps paint formulators achieve consistently smooth, stable, and high-quality coatings while optimizing production safety and efficiency.
