1. What is Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (MHEC)?
Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (MHEC) is a cellulose derivative that is commonly used as a thickening agent, binder, and film-former in various industries, including construction, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products.
Growing concerns about the environment are driving up demand for eco-friendly and sustainable products. The use of MHEC made from renewable resources, such as wood pulp, is growing as a viable substitute for traditional MHEC. Furthermore, MHEC's biodegradability enhances its attractiveness in environmentally sensitive markets.
