MHEC MH100MS is nonionic cellulose ethers refer to a class of cellulose ethers and their derivatives that do not contain dissociable groups on their structural units. Compared with ionic ether products, they are more effective in thickening, emulsifying, film forming, protective colloid, and moisture retention. It has better performance in terms of adhesion, anti-allergy, etc., and is widely used in industrial sectors such as oil field exploitation, latex coatings, polymer polymerization, building materials, daily chemicals, food, pharmaceuticals, papermaking, textile printing and dyeing.

KimaCell® MHEC MH100MS methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose is used in the field of daily chemicals, MHEC is widely used in shampoos. MHEC derivatives can increase viscosity and thicken products. Cellulose acts as a foam stabilizer. Cellulose ether products are also used to reduce costs and etc. Cellulose ether is used in various aspects, and is relatively concentrated in bulk consumption, such as detergents, surface coatings, construction products and oil field treatment agents, but the consumption in these fields accounts for less than 50% of the entire cellulose ether market. Cellulose ether proportion of raw material consumption in these areas is small.
