Product Description
Ethyl cellulose (EC) polymer is an organic soluble cellulose ether made from natural cellulose through chemical reaction. It belongs to the non-ionic cellulose ether category. It is white to slightly yellow powder or granules, odorless, tasteless and non-toxic. Ethyl cellulose powder could be widely used in printing inks.
Product Specification
What is Ethyl Cellulose (EC) Features and Properties?
1. Low Ash Content: Ethyl Cellulose has a very low ash content, makes it useful in applications such as conductive inks and paste.
2. Water Resistance: Ethyl Cellulose is an excellent water Barrier and can be used to protect water-sensitive ingredients.
3. Film Formation: Ethyl Cellulose is an excellent film former, films made from Ethyl Cellulose are tough and with high tensile strength
4. Binding: The good binding qualities of Ethyl Cellulose powder is useful in applications such as tableting and microencapsulation
5. Solubility: Ethyl Cellulose is water-insoluble, but dissolves in a wide of solvents, such as ethanol, alcohols, ethers, ketons, and other organic solvents.

Ethyl Cellulose For Printing Inks
In Printing inks,Ethyl cellulose Ethocel is mainly used as a thickener and rheology control agent, which can increase the consistency and viscosity of the ink and improve its fluidity and stability. In addition, ethyl cellulose can also improve the adhesion and film-forming properties of the ink, making the coating more uniform and smooth. These characteristics make ethyl cellulose widely used in the ink industry.

----Heat -Transfer Inks
----Solvent-Free Hot Melt Inks
Ethyl Cellulose For Pha Grade
Ethyl Cellulose polymers (EC) are recognized and used globally for many different functional purposes in pha products.They are frequently used in controlled-release, solid-dosage formulations as well as for protective coatings for water-sensitive or reactive ingredients. They are also useful as granulation binders, as film formers, to improve tablet integrity and appearance,and to mask the taste of bitter active ingredients
1. Granulation: Ethyl Cellulose is often used for solvent granulation of water-sensitive materials
2. Coating: Ethyl Cellulose could be used as solvent-based tablet and bead coatings, they could form strong films with good adhesion.
3.Tablet Binding: Ethyl Cellulose products are used as tablet binders in dry granulation or direct compression formulations
4.Microencapsules: Ethylcellulose sed as encapsulation excipients to prepare sustained-release microcapsules to enable sustained release of drug efficacy and prevent some water-soluble drugs from taking effect prematurely
Ethyl Cellulose For Food Grade/Animal Feed
1. Food/Food contact packing:ETHOCEL Ethylcellulose polymers are odorless,tasteless, and film-forming and are therefore used in food applications such as flavor encapsulation, inks for marking fruits and vegetables, and as a component of paper and paperboard packaging in contact with aqueous and fatty foods.
2. Animal Feed:ETHOCEL Ethylcellulose polymers are organo-soluble film formers. These polymers can be used to control the release of nutrients in animal feed pellets or granules.
Ethocel EC Ethyl Cellulose For Conductive Paste
Ethyl Cellulose polymers could be used in conductive pastes because it provides very low ash content, providing high purity and clean burn out for high-end electronic applications.it functions as a rheology modifier and as a binder and stabilizer for metal pigments. They burn out cleanly, leaving no residue after firing, so it is a very perfect raw material for silver conductive paste application.
Ethyl Cellulose For Personal care ,Optical film,and ceramic capacitor (MLCC)
1.Personal Care:Ethyl Cellulose EC is soluble in many organic solvents, including ethanol and natural oils. It yields strong, flexible films at low concentration. It provides excellent water resistance and can be used to protect water-sensitive ingredients. It can be used to mask or control the release of active ingredients. so it could be used in lipsticks and nail polishes (gives long-lasting brilliance),as a fragrance stabilizer, and as a thickener for perfumes and body creams(waterproof sunscreens).
2. Optical film:The role of Ethyl cellulose in optical films is mainly reflected in its physical properties, including solubility, thermal stability, film-forming properties, viscosity and rheology, mechanical properties and optical properties.
3. ceramic capacitor:Ethyl Cellulose Powder is the world-premier binder for multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) and other high-end electronic ceramic parts. It provides clean burn-out, high purity, high solubility, thixotropy for print and adhesion for lamination.ceramic capacitor
