MHEC (Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose) is another cellulose-based polymer commonly used as an additive in cement-based plastering applications. It offers similar benefits to HPMC but with some variations in its properties. Here’s how MHEC is used in cement-based plastering: Water Retention: MHEC improves water retention in the plastering mix, allowing for extended workability. It helps to […]

Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC) is a commonly used additive in cement-based materials, such as mortars and concrete. It belongs to the family of cellulose ethers and is derived from natural cellulose through a chemical modification process. MHEC is primarily used as a thickener, water-retaining agent, and rheology modifier in cement-based products. It helps improve the […]

mhec methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (MHEC) is a type of cellulose ether that is commonly used as a thickener, binder, and stabilizer in various industries. MHEC is water-soluble and can be easily dissolved in water to form a clear, viscous solution. SLEO Chemical is a manufacturer and supplier of cellulose ether products, including […]

Cellulose ether (CE) is a natural additive found in many building materials as thickeners, binders, film formers, and water-retention agents. Methyl cellulose (MC), methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC/HEMC), and methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose (MHPC/HPMC) are the most common cellulose ethers used as admixtures in building materials.
