China MHEC-Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose Supplier
Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose is also known as MHEC. It is a non-ionic cellulose ether. MHEC cellulose can extend the setting time of cement mortars. It increases bonding and tensile strength by ensuring cement is fully hydrated.
WOTAIchem is one of the professional methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose manufacturers in China. The MHEC powders under WOTAIchem® brand offer remarkable water retention, thickening and workability.

Top 5 Highlights of MHEC Powder
1. High Water Retention. Maintains excellent water retention even at high temperatures.
2. Excellent Thicking Effect. Provides stronger adhesion between different materials.
3. Good Open Time. WOTAIchem MHEC powder has good mold resistance. This key feature can maintain viscosity stability during long-term storage.
4. Cold-water Solubility. Lower viscosity leads to greater solubility.
5. Workability. Easy to use. Providing better construction performance.
MHEC Powder Uses
Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose finds use in diverse construction tasks. It is mainly used in the dry mix mortar formula.
90% of our MHEC powder is used in projects as follows:
– Tile Adhesives.
– Wall Putty.
– Plasters.
– Joint Filler.
– EIFS System.
MHEC vs Methyl Cellulose vs Hydroxyethyl Cellulose
MHEC is a high-performance mixed ether. It is produced by introducing hydroxyethyl groups into methyl cellulose (MC), creating a modified cellulose ether with enhanced properties.
- Methyl cellulose (MC) dissolves only in cold water and gels in hot water.
- Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), on the other hand, is soluble in both cold and hot water and does not gel when heated.
- Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC) combines the excellent water retention of MC with the thermal stability of HEC, offering better heat resistance, superior water retention, smoother workability, longer open time, and broader formulation compatibility.
In hot weather, MHEC is the preferred cellulose ether for mortar systems, as it merges MC’s water retention with HEC’s heat stability, significantly improving workability and adhesion performance under high-temperature conditions.
