What is Ethocel EC Ethyl Cellulose?
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, pharmaceutical, conductive paste, personal care, ceramic capacitor(MLCC),optical film, food grade, food contact packing,animal feed and many other applications.
What is Ethyl Cellulose functions for Optical Film?
- 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
