Exploring the Properties and Applications of Methyl Ethyl Compounds in Chemistry
In addition to its thickening properties, MHEC also acts as a film-forming agent. When applied to the skin or hair, it forms a thin film that helps to lock in moisture and protect against environmental damage. This film-forming ability is especially useful in moisturizers and lotions, as it helps to keep the skin hydrated and supple.
9. Concrete Mixes
● Good thickening / thickening efficiency
2. Stabilizer: Like other cellulose ethers, MHEC acts as a stabilizer in emulsions and suspensions, preventing the separation of different components.
