Application of Hydroxyethyl Cellulose in Fabrics

2023 04/14

Hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) is a water-soluble polymer with good thickening, stability and viscosity control properties. Due to its excellent performance, HEC is widely used in fabric printing and dyeing, coating and waterproofing.

In fabric printing and dyeing, HEC can be used as a thickener and binder for printing and dyeing pastes, increasing the viscosity and consistency of printing and dyeing pastes, and improving the uniformity and color fastness of printing and dyeing. At the same time, HEC can also play the role of moisturizing, antibacterial and anti-fading, and improve the quality and durability of printed and dyed products.

In terms of fabric coating, HEC can be used as a thickener and binder for coatings, increasing the viscosity and consistency of coatings, and improving the adhesion and durability of coatings. In addition, HEC can also play the role of waterproof, dustproof and anticorrosion, and improve the protective performance of the coating.

In conclusion, as an excellent thickener and adhesive, HEC can provide good solutions for fabric printing and dyeing, coating and waterproofing.
