Features Of Dow CELLOSIZE ER-15000 Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

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

  2. Non-ionic character ensures compatibility with a broad range of surfactants, electrolytes, and pH conditions (pH 2–12).

  3. Provides outstanding suspension stability for insoluble particles and pigments in liquid formulations.

  4. Offers good film-forming capability and enhanced surface adhesion in coating and adhesive applications.

  5. Free-flowing, easy-to-disperse powder with low dust generation and consistent batch-to-batch performance.

Typical Applications Of Dow CELLOSIZE ER-15000 Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Architectural paints and interior/exterior wall coatings for viscosity build and sag resistance.

  2. Tile adhesives and cement-based mortars to improve workability, water retention, and open time.

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

  4. Industrial cleaners and hard-surface cleaners where stable, non-foaming viscosity is required.

  5. Agrochemical suspensions and seed treatment formulations for particle stabilization and spray drift reduction.
