MHEC/HEMC Description:
MHEC is non-ionic cellulose ether made from natural cotton fiber under series of chemical
processing.
It’s odorless, tasteless and non-toxic white powder, can be dissolved in normal water to form a transparent viscous solution with the properties of thickening, binding, dispersing, emulsifying, film coating, suspending, absorbing, gelling, water retention and colloid protection.
