Products Description
Our hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) features a higher degree of molar substitution than conventional HEC products. This results in excellent enzymatic stability, making it more resistant to enzymatic degradation. These properties contribute to improved final performance in paint applications. Our HEC products are widely applied in paints and coatings industries.
