Factory Direct Price THYLOCELL® HB-2000 Hydroxyethyl Cellulose HEC Thickener Large-Scale Supply Available

THYLOCELL® HB-100KH is a high-viscosity, non-ionic Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) with excellent biostability and a high degree of substitution. It dissolves easily in both cold and hot water and provides strong thickening efficiency, superior rheology modification, excellent suspension, and outstanding water retention.

This grade is widely used in latex paints, dry-mix mortars, oil drilling fluids, detergents, polymerization, agriculture, inks, textiles, ceramics, and toothpaste formulations, delivering stable performance across diverse conditions.

Key Benefits:

Salt-Tolerant Thickening: Maintains stable viscosity even in high-electrolyte systems (e.g., 20% NaCl).

Zero Thermal Gelation: No viscosity loss during heating — ideal for high-temperature paint production.

Shear-Thinning Behavior: Enables smooth spraying and brushing; fast recovery prevents sagging.

Superior Pigment Stabilization: Keeps TiO₂ and fillers evenly dispersed, improving color uniformity and shelf life.

Fast Dissolution: Quickly soluble in cold or warm water, reducing mixing time and energy consumption.

Excellent Film Quality: Delivers uniform film formation and enhanced coating performance.
