About this product
Product information from the supplier.
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a high-performance, non-ionic cellulose ether widely utilized across multiple industrial sectors. Engineered for superior versatility, HEC serves as a critical additive in paints, coatings, textile pulp formation, and oil drilling fracking operations, where it functions as a highly efficient dispersant, thickener, emulsifier, and stabilizer.
Characterized by its pure white color and exceptional solubility in both hot and cold water, HEC provides a clear, stable solution upon dissolution. With a broad viscosity range from 400 to 100,000, it is meticulously designed to meet the specific technical requirements of diverse chemical applications, ensuring optimal consistency and performance in every batch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the primary industrial applications of HEC?
HEC is primarily used in the paint and coatings industry as a thickener, in oil drilling for fracking fluids, and in textile manufacturing for pulp formation.
Q: How can I verify the purity of the HEC powder?
Purity can be verified by weighing a fixed volume; higher purity correlates with higher density. Additionally, better fluidity when rolling in a jar indicates higher quality.
Q: Does HEC dissolve in cold water?
Yes, our HEC is specifically designed to be soluble in both hot and cold water under room temperature.
Q: How long does it take for HEC to reach its maximum viscosity?
When thoroughly dissolved, the solution typically reaches its peak viscosity within 30 to 60 minutes.
Q: Are free samples available for testing?
Yes, we provide free samples for quality verification. The buyer covers the air shipping cost. We can provide different batches to prove quality stability.
Q: What is the typical viscosity range available for your HEC?
We offer a wide range of viscosities from 400 to 100,000 mPa.s to accommodate various industrial applications.
