Features Of Ashland Natrosol 250LR Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. High-viscosity, low-salt-sensitivity rheology modifier for stable thickening in electrolyte-containing systems.

  2. Excellent water solubility and rapid hydration without clumping, even under moderate shear.

  3. Provides outstanding suspension capability for insoluble particles in aqueous formulations.

  4. Non-ionic nature ensures compatibility with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactants and additives.

  5. Thermally reversible gel behavior supports processing flexibility and film-forming performance.

Typical Applications Of Ashland Natrosol 250LR Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Architectural coatings — improves sag resistance, brushability, and roller spatter control.

  2. Tile adhesives and cementitious mortars — enhances water retention and open time.

  3. Personal care gels and lotions — delivers elegant texture, clarity, and stability across pH range.

  4. Agrochemical suspensions — stabilizes active ingredients and prevents settling during storage.

  5. Oilfield completion fluids — provides viscosity control and solids suspension in high-salinity brines.
