Methyl hydroxy ethyl cellulose

Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC) is a type of cellulose ether that is commonly used as a thickener, stabilizer, and film former in various industries such as construction, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food. It’s derived from cellulose, a natural polymer found in plants, and it’s modified to have both methyl and hydroxyethyl groups attached to the cellulose backbone.

In construction applications, MHEC is often used in cement-based materials to improve workability, water retention, and adhesion. It helps to prevent sagging and dripping of the mixture, thus facilitating easier application and better performance of the final product.

In pharmaceuticals, MHEC is utilized in various formulations such as oral liquids, tablets, and topical creams as a binder, thickener, and stabilizer. Its properties help to improve the consistency, texture, and stability of these formulations.
