Ma cellulose ether ndi mtundu wa ufa wopanda ionic, wosungunuka m'madzi wosungunuka wa polima womwe umapangidwa kuti upititse patsogolo magwiridwe antchito a utoto wa latex, utha kukhala ngati zosintha za rheology mu utoto wa latex. Ndi mtundu wa Hydroxyethyl cellulose wosinthidwa, mawonekedwe ake ndi opanda fungo, opanda fungo komanso opanda poizoni oyera mpaka pang'ono achikasu granular ufa.
HEC ndiye chowonjezera chomwe chimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri mu utoto wa Latex. Kuphatikiza pa kukhuthala kwa utoto wa Latex, imakhala ndi ntchito ya emulsifying, kubalalitsa, kukhazikika komanso kusunga madzi. Makhalidwe ake ndi ofunikira kwambiri pakukhuthala, komanso mtundu wabwino wawonetsero, kupanga filimu ndi kukhazikika kosungirako. HEC ndi nonionic cellulose ether yomwe ingagwiritsidwe ntchito mu pH yambiri. Zimagwirizana bwino ndi zinthu zina, monga pigment, zothandizira, zodzaza ndi mchere, ntchito yabwino komanso kusanja. Sikophweka kudontha kugwa ndi kuwaza.
