Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC), KDOCEL HEC 9MS is a specific grade manufactured by KDOCEL (Kundu Chemical specializing in cellulose ethers).
Here’s a breakdown of its key properties and applications:
Key Features of KDOCEL HEC 9MS:
Non-ionic: Compatible with a wide range of ionic systems (salts, surfactants, etc.).
Cold-water dispersible: Forms a smooth solution when dispersed in cold water (avoiding lump formation with proper stirring).
Equivalent to Bermocoll 481 FQ: A comparable product from Nouryon (formerly AkzoNobel), often used in paints, coatings, and construction materials.
Typical Applications:
Paints & Coatings: Acts as a thickener, stabilizer, and water retention agent.
Construction Materials: Used in cement-based mortars, tile adhesives, and gypsum products for improved workability.
Comparison with Bermocoll 481 FQ:
Similar viscosity, solubility, and performance in applications.
Often used as a cost-effective alternative in formulations.
May require slight adjustments in dosage depending on the system.
Handling & Storage:
Store in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture absorption.
Avoid high temperatures to maintain stability.
