Features Of Ashland Natrosol 250HHBR Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. High-viscosity, water-soluble polymer providing excellent thickening and rheology control in aqueous systems.

  2. Outstanding salt tolerance and compatibility with surfactants, electrolytes, and common industrial additives.

  3. Non-ionic nature ensures stability across broad pH range (3–11) and minimal sensitivity to metal ions.

  4. Provides pseudoplastic flow behavior, supporting sag resistance in coatings and improved suspension in agrochemicals.

  5. Easily dispersible with low gel lump formation during hydration, enabling efficient high-shear or cold-water mixing.

Typical Applications Of Ashland Natrosol 250HHBR Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Architectural and industrial coatings for viscosity build, brush/roller drag reduction, and spatter resistance.

  2. Agrochemical suspensions and emulsifiable concentrates (SC/EC formulations) to stabilize active ingredients.

  3. Personal care products including shampoos, conditioners, and body washes for mild thickening and clarity retention.

  4. Cleaners and detergents where high-efficiency thickening and foaming synergy are required.

  5. Construction mortars and tile adhesives to enhance water retention and workability.
