Important characteristics :
Ethyl cellulose is a nonionic cellulose ether.
1. Uneasy to burn.
2. Good thermostability and excellent thermoplasticity.
3. not discolor by sunlight.
4. Good flexibility.
5. High dielectric.
6. Excellent base-resisting and acid-resisting capability.
7. Fine anti-ageing capability.
8.Good salt-tolerance ad cold-resistant.
9. Stable for chemicals, and not deteriorate for a long time.
10. EC can company with a lot of resin and all plasticizer.
Pharmaceuticals
EC can be used as film former, binder, dispersing agent, stabilizer, water retention agent and controlled release agent in many kinds of medication.
Coating
EC can make up some printing and coating, the coating films have good glossiness and excellent slackening capability and flexibility.
Plastic
EC can make up the plastic powder which is easy to take shape, improve cold-resistant property and so on.
In other industry
EC is used as temporary coating for fluorescent lamp tube, to raise the viscosity of phosphorated harden the glasses' surface. In additon, it is used in electricity conductive printing ink which is used in the basement flake in integrated circuit.
PACKAGE
It is packed in fiber drum and lining with polyethylene film bag. Net weight 12.5kg per drum.
