Chemical Additives for Colorful and Functional Surfaces

What are paints and coatings?

Paints and coatings are used for both decorative and functional purposes. They can enhance the appearance of various surfaces by providing color and texture. Also, they offer basic protection against moisture, UV light, and heat.

Strengthen Your Coating’s Resistance with LANDU Additives

Top-quality Paint & Coatings Additives

LANDU is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of high-quality cellulose ether products, committed to delivering innovative chemical modifiers for your Paint & Coating formulas.

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose(HEC)

LANDERCOLL® HE100BE

HEC (Hydroxyethyl Cellulose)

LANDERCOLL HE100BE HEC offers optimal viscosity control. It helps your formulas achieve the desired texture and consistency. So paints and coatings are easy to apply, resulting in a smooth, even finish. Also, HE100BE can prevent the separation of pigment and other components over time. Our LANDERCOLL HE100BE helps paints retain water. This reduces cracking and peeling as they dry.

LANDERCOLL® EM100S

HEMC (Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose)

LANDERCOLL EM100S HEMC serves as an effective thickener. It can adjust viscosity to form a stable gel-like structure. This improves the suspension of pigments and fillers, ensuring uniform color distribution and consistency in the final coating. Also, HEMC can improve adhesion and film formation. This helps coatings last longer. Such properties make HEMC suitable for both interior and exterior applications.

Maximize Paint Durability and Adhesion with LANDU Additives

LANDERCOLL® HEC

HEC chemicals are the most essential ingredients in the paint and coating industry. They have good water retention and a thickening effect. They are widely compatible with various paint components and colorants. All these allow HEC to tackle issues like low viscosity, uneven finish, and cracking.

Choose HEC if:​

  • Your primary needs are viscosity control and water retention without requiring high adhesion or durability.
  • You want a non-ionic thickener that’s compatible with various components.

LANDERCOLL® HEMC

HEMC additives can significantly improve adhesion, film formation, and durability. They can make your paints and coatings more resistant to environmental factors.

Choose HEMC if:​

• You require improved adhesion, film formation, and durability in your coatings.

• You’re formulating high-performance paints that need to withstand environmental factors.

Frequently Asked Questions

We offer 200-600g free sample depending on your needs.

The dosage of HEMC (Hydroxyethyl Methylcellulose) in paints and coatings generally ranges from 0.1% to 1.5% of the total formulation, depending on the desired viscosity, consistency, and performance characteristics. For specific applications, you may want to conduct trials to determine the optimal concentration for your formulation.

Yes, they are generally compatible with a wide range of other additives, including surfactants, pigments, and biocides. However, it’s advisable to conduct compatibility tests for specific formulations.

Yes, both HEMC and HEC are versatile and can be tailored for specialty coatings, including those requiring specific rheological properties or performance characteristics.

Both HEMC and HEC serve as thickening agents, improve the viscosity of formulations, enhance open time (the time during which a coating can be applied), and contribute to the overall stability and performance of the paint.
