Hydroxyethyl Cellulose is non-ion surface active agent. Except for dispersing, water retention and other, it has the following characters: 

1. It can dissolve in hot water or cold water. 

2. Good gel thickening agent

3. Better fluid adjustment

4. The strongest protection gel ability.

 

Solution and confecting methods

1. Put the containers to add clean water.

2. Add Hydroxyethyl Cellulose in low speed mixing;

3. Mix to make Hydroxyethyl Cellulose completely dissolve.
