Gelling &thickening agent derived from cellulose. It is widely used in cosmetics,cleaning solution, bond strengthener, cement extender, coating & optical brightener aid, coating polymer & stabilization agent.

Hydroxyethyl cellulose is a polysaccharide derivative with gel thickening, emulsifying, bubble-forming, water-retaining and stabilizing properties.

Fumed silica is an extremely small particle with enormous surface area, high purity, and a tendency to form chains in the chemical manufacturing process. Particles are formed by injecting chlorosilanes, such as silicon tetrachloride, into a flame of hydrogen and air.

It is based on soft core-hard shell polymer particles can be used as additives in polymer-cement mortars. ... The polymer powders were mixed with a mortar mixture and redispersed in water to produce cement-based membranes, which were tested for crack-bridging properties at different temperatures.
