TYLOSE H 30000 YP2 is a water-soluble, non-ionic hydroxyethyl cellulose powder with standard etherification. It displays very good temperature stability, good binding effects, high gloss appearance, pigment compatibility, and water retention, and moderate anti-spattering properties, wet scrub resistance, and foam stabilization. This grade is particularly well-suited for use in engobe, glaze, exterior paint, silicate paint, silicone resin paint, welding rod, hair conditioner, and shampoo applications.

TYLOSE MH 60004 P6 is a water-soluble, non-ionic, modified methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose powder with standard etherification. It displays very fast consistency development, moderate sag resistance and water demand, very high water retention, and low influence on cement hydration. This grade is ideal for use in cement tile adhesives.

TYLOSE MH 50 G4 is a water-soluble, non-ionic methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose, in the form of granules, with standard etherification. It displays low thickening effects and plasticity, good temperature stability, and moderate binding effects. This grade of methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC) is particularly well-suited for use in slip casting and seed coating applications.
