CELLOSIZE™ QP 52000H hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is a high molecular weight cellulosic polymer used as a general thickener for water-borne systems including latex paints, personal care products, household cleaning products, and tape-joint compounds. In latex paints, typical use levels of CELLOSIZE QP 52000H HEC are 4 to 6 pounds per 100 gallons, and in personal care/household cleaners, the levels of use are typically between 0.5% and 1%. CELLOSIZE QP 52000H HEC solutions exhibit a fairly high degree of pseudoplasticity, and because of its high thickening efficiency, it is among the most popular HEC products for general thickening applications.
