Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose (HEMC)
HEMC is a key cellulose ether widely used in construction materials, paints, and personal care products. It acts as a thickener, water-retention agent, and binder in tile adhesives, cement mortars, and gypsum plasters, improving workability and adhesion. In coatings and cosmetics, HEMC enhances viscosity, stability, and film-forming properties. Its excellent solubility and thermal gelation make it ideal for diverse industrial applications.
