Cellulose ether ke mofuta oa phofo e seng ea ionic, e qhibilihang ka metsing ea polymer e ntlafalitsoeng ho ntlafatsa ts'ebetso ea rheological ea lipente tsa latex, e ka ba li-addifiers tsa rheology lipenteng tsa latex. Ke mofuta oa selulose ea Hydroxyethyl e fetotsoeng, ponahalo ha e latsoehe, ha e na monko ebile ha e na chefo e tšoeu ho isa phofo e nyane e mosehla.
HEC ke "thickener" e sebelisoang haholo penteng ea Latex. Ho phaella ho teteaneng ho pente ea Latex, e na le mosebetsi oa ho emulsifying, ho qhalakanya, ho tsitsisa le ho boloka metsi. Thepa ea eona ke phello e kholo ea ho tenya, 'mala o motle oa pontšo, sebopeho sa filimi le botsitso ba polokelo. HEC ke nonionic cellulose ether e ka sebelisoang ka mefuta e mengata ea pH. E na le tumellano e ntle le lisebelisoa tse ling, joalo ka pigment, li-axiliary, li-fillers le matsoai, li sebetsa hantle le ho lekana. Ha ho bonolo ho rotha ho sagging le ho fafatsa.
