FINCELO® EC for INDUSTRIAL application
FINCELO EC industrial series are ethyl cellulose. Ethylcellulose, taking natural cellulose as the main raw material, is organic-soluble cellulose ether produced by a series of chemical reactions, belonging to nonionic cellulose ethers. The appearance of EC is white to slight yellow powder or granules without smell and taste
EC has small moisture absorption, good electrical properties and good stability to light, heat, oxygen, damp and chemicals. It is nonflammable and tolerant to strong base, diluted acid and brine solution. It can be soluble in organic solvents like alcohols, ethers, ketones, esters, arenes, halohydrocarbons, etc.
