Product Description
HEC15000P is a nonionic ,water-soluble polymer from wood pulps or cotton linters that can be used of water retention aid and rheology modifier in water-based paints. HEC15000P is a high viscosity grade of hydroxy ethyl cellulose. It is available in a grade that has bio-stability in solution against enzymatic attacks.
Application
HEC15000 is widely used for water-based paints. It provides good pseudoplastic flow and wide compatibility with colored pigments, emulsion polymers, surfactants, emulsifiers, defoamers, and preservatives. In order to avoid lump formations caused by a quicker than optimal dissolution rate, HEC15000 is properly treated to achieve optimum hydration time for the application.

Storage & Packaging
HEC15000 is packed 25kgnet multi-layer paper bag with polyethylene inner liner. HEC15000P should be stored under dry and clean conditions in its original packaging due to its hygroscopic property. If not,HEC15000P can absorb moisture relative to the humidity in the air. HEC15000P is not a perishable product.
If it stored in closed containers, in its original packaging and in a dry place at room temperature,HEC15000 can maintain its original properties.
