Hydroxyethyl Cellulose 6 Oz Powder Saver Bottle – Eisen Golden Labs

Description

Product Overview

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a versatile, water‑soluble polymer widely used in scientific and industrial applications for its thickening, stabilizing, and film‑forming properties. This reagent‑grade powder is supplied in a compact 6 oz (170 g) space‑saving bottle, allowing laboratories to maximize bench space while maintaining easy access to a high‑purity material. The powder is finely milled to a 20‑mesh texture, ensuring rapid dissolution and consistent performance across a range of formulations. With a purity range of 83‑95%, the product meets the stringent requirements of research, development, and quality‑controlled production environments. The packaging includes a secure, resealable cap that protects the powder from moisture and contamination, extending shelf life and preserving functional integrity. Manufactured by Eisen‑Golden Laboratories, a reputable supplier known for rigorous quality control and reliable chemical supplies, this HEC powder is a trusted component for scientists, formulators, and process engineers.

Usage

This Hydroxyethyl Cellulose powder is designed for a broad spectrum of laboratory and industrial uses. In research labs, it serves as a key ingredient for rheology studies, enabling precise control of viscosity in aqueous systems. Formulators in the cosmetics and personal care industry rely on HEC to create smooth, stable creams, lotions, and gels, benefiting from its ability to enhance texture and improve product feel. In the coatings sector, the polymer acts as a binder and thickener, providing uniform film formation and resistance to sagging during application. The 6 oz bottle size is ideal for pilot‑scale experiments, allowing users to conduct multiple trials without the need for large bulk containers. Additionally, the powder is suitable for educational settings, where students can explore polymer behavior, solution dynamics, and material science concepts. Its compatibility with a wide range of pH levels and electrolytes makes it adaptable to diverse formulation requirements.
