Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC)

Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC)

Tylose® HEC (hydroxyethyl cellulose/Tylose H-grades) are soluble in water at any temperature. Tylose HEC are nonionic cellulose ethers, which are offered as free flowing powder or in granular form. Many Tylose HEC grades have a retarded solubility which ensures a lump free solution in aqueous systems.
