Hydroxyethylmethylcellulose is a water-soluble, non-ionic cellulose ether. As a construction additive, it has the effects of water retention, thickening and retarding, and is often used in applications such as tile adhesive, putty, and exterior wall insulation.
Tenda is a reliable supplier of cellulose ether, with decades of experience in the industry, from procurement to production, every link of Tenda's scientific research personnel will carry out strict detail control, our philosophy is: to produce the highest quality products , providing the most reliable service.
Introduction on the right side of the picture:
Description
Hydroxyethylmethylcellulose (HEMC) is a derivative of methylcellulose, a non-ionic cellulose ether made from natural renewable polymers such as cotton or wood pulp. It is an odorless, tasteless, non-toxic white powder that dissolves in cold water to form a clear viscous solution. When used as a construction and daily chemical additive, it is often used in tile adhesives, putty, external wall insulation and washing daily chemical products. A good cellulose ether product should have good thickening, water-retention, dispersion, film formation and other effects.

Features of HEMCs
1. Soluble in water and some organic solvents (WATER-SOLUBLE)
Can be dissolved in water, its highest concentration is only determined by the viscosity, the solubility changes with the viscosity, the lower the viscosity, the greater the solubility.
2. Non-ionic (NON-IONIC)
The product is a non-ionic cellulose ether, and it is not a polyelectrolyte, so it is relatively stable in aqueous solution in the presence of metal salts or organic electrolytes, but excessive addition of electrolytes can cause gelation and precipitation
3. SURFACE ACTIVITY
Due to the active function of the aqueous solution, it can be used as a colloidal protective agent, emulsifier and dispersant
4. THERMAL GELS
When the product aqueous solution is heated to a certain temperature, it becomes opaque and the gel forms a precipitate. However, when it is continuously cooled, it returns to the original solution state. The temperature at which this gelation and precipitation occurs mainly depends on their lubricants and suspending agents. Protective colloid. Emulsifier, etc.
5. FILM FORMATION
Can form a transparent, tough and flexible film with good oil resistance and water resistance
6. Mildew resistance
Has relatively good anti-fungal ability. Good viscosity stability during long-term storage.
