Hydroxy ethyl cellulose (HEC) is a non-ionic water-soluble polymer, white or almost white, odorless, fand ree-flowing granular powder.
Cellulose derivatives are extensively used for thickening of pharmaceutical solutions and disperse systems such as emulsions and suspensions.

Frequently Asked Questions

The difference between the HPMC and MHEC is reflected in the gel temperature.The gel temperatures of the two are different. The gel temperature is a critical point for the application of cellulose ether. When the ambient temperature exceeds the gel temperature, cellulose ether will separate from water and lose its water retention property.This means that cellulose ether will become invalid and lose its viscosity.

A: Proper-grade HPMC combusts cleanly at high temperatures without reducing density or mechanical properties.
Yes. Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (MHEC) Powder can be combined with other cellulose ethers (like HEC, HPMC) or water-soluble polymers in construction formulations.
