The second function of cellulose ether - thickening depends on: the degree of polymerization of cellulose ether, solution concentration, shear rate...

In dry-mix mortar, cellulose ether plays the role of water retention, thickening and thixotropy, air entrainment, and slow setting.

Fine powders of cellulose ethers can form explosive dust in the air, just like polysaccharides or sawdust.

Cellulose ether is generally non-toxic. Many high-purity industrial cellulose ether products can be used as food additives and cosmetic ingredients.

Cellulose ethers are white or light yellow solids, usually in granular or powder form (moisture content up to 10%).

Due to the particularity of the natural cellulose structure, cellulose itself has no ability to react with etherifying agents.

Cellulose ether is a synthetic polymer made from natural cellulose through chemical modification.

According to the chemical structure of the substituent, it can be divided into anionic, cationic and nonionic ethers.

In 2011, China's CMC production capacity was about 300,000 tons. With the growing demand for high-quality cellulose ethers in the pharmaceutical.

China is the world's largest producer and consumer of cellulose ethers, with an average annual growth rate of more than 20%.

The solubility properties of cellulose after etherification change significantly and can be dissolved in water, dilute acid, dilute alkali or organ...
