Features Of Lotte FMC-8821 Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Highly effective thickener with excellent water solubility and rapid hydration kinetics.

  2. Outstanding thermal and pH stability across a broad range (pH 3–11) and up to 90°C.

  3. Provides superior film-forming capability and enhanced surface adhesion in aqueous systems.

  4. Low salt sensitivity, maintaining viscosity performance in the presence of common electrolytes.

  5. Non-ionic nature ensures compatibility with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactants and polymers.

Typical Applications Of Lotte FMC-8821 Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

  1. Architectural coatings: interior and exterior latex paints for rheology control and sag resistance.

  2. Tile adhesive mortars: improves workability, open time, and bond strength on porous substrates.

  3. Pharmaceutical suspensions and topical gels: serves as a safe, non-irritating viscosity enhancer and stabilizer.

  4. Personal care formulations: used in shampoos, conditioners, and hand sanitizers for clarity and sensory profile.

  5. Oilfield drilling fluids: functions as a viscosifier and fluid-loss additive in water-based mud systems.
