Types of Cellulose Ether

ProductFeaturesAdvantages
HPMC (Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose)Methoxy + Hydroxypropyl substitution; water-soluble; viscosity grades 3,000–100,000 mPa·sExcellent thickening, film-forming, water retention; ideal for dry-mix mortars, coatings, pharmaceutical coatings
MHEC (Methoxy Hydroxyethyl Cellulose)Methoxy + Hydroxyethyl substitution; good water solubility; viscosity 10,000–200,000 mPa·sImproves workability in tile adhesives and cement-based mortars; cost-effective alternative to HPMC
HEC (Hydroxyethyl Cellulose)Hydroxyethyl substitution; water-soluble; viscosity 50–2,000,000 mPa·sHigh water retention; suitable for water-based paints, personal care products, and drilling fluids
CMC (Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium)Carboxymethyl substitution; anionic water-soluble polymer; viscosity 100–2,000,000 mPa·sEnhances thickening, stabilization, and suspension; widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, detergents, and ceramics

HPMC
HPMC

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a non-ionic, water-soluble polymer derived from natural cellulose. At Hehui Chemical, we manufacture high-purity HPMC designed to meet the demanding needs of dry mix mortars, water-based paints, and household detergent formulations.

MHEC
MHEC

MHEC, also known as HEMC (Hydroxyethyl Methylcellulose), is a versatile cellulose ether widely used in construction materials and water-based Paint &coatings. As a modified cellulose ether, MHEC offers excellent water retention, thickening, and rheology control properties, making it a vital ingredient in products like tile adhesives, dry mix mortars, wall putty, gypsum plaster, and waterborne paints.

HEC
HEC

Hehui Hydroxyethyl Cellulose HEC Powder is a non-ionic, water-soluble cellulose ether designed to deliver excellent thickening, stabilization, and water retention across a wide range of industries. Made from high-purity natural cellulose, our HEC is ideal for water-based formulations in paints, coatings, construction materials, personal care products, and oilfield chemicals.

CMC
CMC

Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) is an anionic water-soluble polymer derived from refined cellulose. It is widely used as a thickener, stabilizer, binder, water retention agent, and film-forming agent.

Product Advantages
Product Advantages

Beyond its core applications in construction, paper, oil drilling, and ceramics, Hehui’s CMC is also trusted in a wide range of industries where performance, consistency, and adaptability are critical. Its excellent water solubility, film-forming ability, and viscosity control make it a highly versatile ingredient.
