Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC)
TENESSIA Hidroxietilcelulose
TENESSY™ Hidroxietilcelulose (HEC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether made from natural polymer cellulose through advanced chemical processing. It appears as a white or light-yellow powder that easily dissolves in cold water, forming a clear and thick solution. Its performance is stable across a wide pH range, making it suitable for many formulations.
