| Natrosol® and Natrosol® B Hydroxyethylcellulose Natrosol® hydroxyethylcellulose delivers robust, consistent thickening in both interior and exterior paints. A creamy in-can consistency, excellent water resistance and a pseudoplastic rheology profile characterize paints thickened with Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose. Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose functions primarily by thickening the aqueous phase of paints. Electrolytes, pH, or ingredients such as dispersants, surfactants, and coalescents do not affect its performance. As a result, paints made with Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose exhibit outstanding tint strength, color acceptance and viscosity retention on tinting. Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose is provided as a white, free flowing powder that is readily incorporated into paints. Natrosol® B hydroxyethylcellulose couples the benefits of Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose with improved bioresistance. Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose and Natrosol B hydroxyethylcellulose are available in a wide range of aqueous viscosities which gives the formulator control of low-shear thickening efficiency and high-shear viscosity. |

Natrosol® Plus modified hydroxyethylcellulose should be considered when spatter resistance is critical. Natrosol hydroxyethylcellulose and Natrosol B hydroxyethylcellulose are fully compatible with Aquaflow® rheology modifiers. Natrosol 250 LR and GR are used as protective colloids in emulsion polymerization. |
