Features Of Dow CELLOSIZE QP-15000H Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. High molecular weight hydroxyethyl cellulose offering exceptional viscosity build and suspension stability in aqueous systems.

  2. Non-ionic, pH-insensitive polymer providing broad formulation compatibility across acidic to alkaline conditions.

  3. Excellent water solubility with rapid dispersion and low gel lumps, enabling efficient cold-water hydration.

  4. Provides outstanding film-forming capability and surface adhesion for improved coating integrity.

  5. Low microbial susceptibility due to non-nutritive backbone, supporting extended shelf life without added biocides.

Typical Applications Of Dow CELLOSIZE QP-15000H Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Architectural coatings — interior and exterior latex paints requiring high sag resistance and brush/roller performance.

  2. Tile adhesives and cement-based mortars — enhancing water retention, workability, and open time.

  3. Oilfield completion fluids — serving as a viscosifier and fluid-loss control agent in fracturing and packer fluids.

  4. Pharmaceutical suspensions and topical gels — acting as a safe, non-ionic thickener compliant with USP/NF standards.

  5. Personal care formulations — stabilizing emulsions and providing elegant rheology in shampoos and body washes.
