Fineness of Cellulose Ether

Fineness of Cellulose Ether   Fineness is also an important performance indicator for cellulose ether. The Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose requirement for dry mortar is powder, low water content, and the fineness also requires 20%-60% of particle size to be less than 63um. Fineness affects the solubility of cellulose ether. The coarser Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose is usually in … Continue reading
