At present, the main cellulose ether manufacturers in the world include Ashland, Dow, Lotte, and Shandong Head. Cellulose ethers are water-soluble polymers produced by chemically modifying cellulose. The main examples of cellulose ethers include CMC, MC, and derivatives such as HPMC, HEMC, and HEC.
In this article, we will mainly introduce Dow and Mikem. Both Mikem and Dow are cellulose ethers manufacturers. Dow Chemical is one of the top three chemical producers in the world. Mikem Chemical is a leading cellulose ethers manufacturer and supplier in the world.
Founded in , Dow Chemical is a multinational corporation in the United States. Headquartered in Midland, Michigan, USA. It is one of the world's three largest chemical manufacturers. Dow Chemical is a producer and supplier of raw materials for products in the electrical, automotive, agricultural, chemical processing, electronics, natural gas, and processed foods industries. At the beginning of its establishment, it only sold bleach and potassium bromide.
Dow Chemical's product range is also expanding, including cellulose ethers, re-dispersible latex powders, acrylic polymer emulsions, silicon, synthetic thickeners, Dispersants, and Opaque Polymers. Used in construction, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industry.
Mikem was founded in and is headquartered in Dallas, USA. The headquarters is mainly responsible for product research and development and quality inspection. Mikem has focused on the production of cellulose ethers including HPMC, HEMC, HEC, re-dispersible latex powder, and concrete fibers since the beginning. Concrete fiber reinforced materials including PP fiber, steel fiber, and polyvinyl alcohol fiber. It is in a leading position in the production and supply of cellulose ether. Mainly used in construction and detergent industries. Through communication with customers, the U.S. R&D department constantly adjusts and optimizes the formula to develop more applicable products.

Dow Chemical is the manufacturer of METHOCEL. Different from methylcellulose, METHOCEL refers to HPMC. Besides, Dow chemical brands include: WALOCEL Cellulose Ethers, DOW Latex Powders, DOWSIL Silicones, PRIMAL and UCAR Acrylic Dispersion, and AQUASET Acrylic Thermosetting Resins
Mikem's brands include MELACOLL Cellulose Ether, FIBEREGO Concrete Fiber, MIKRANT Redispersible Polymer Powder, and MIKRANT Starch Ether.

As cellulose ether manufacturer, we also have equal grade HPMC. In the production process of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, the methoxy content of the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose produced by Mikem is 19-24%. And the hydroxypropyl content is 4-12%. Generally speaking, the higher the methoxy content, the greater the viscosity and the better the water retention effect. The R&D department has designed a variety of HPMCs to meet market demand, such as MelaColl MP and MP. The difference between the two is that the viscosity of MP is -, and the viscosity of MP is between -. In addition, MP has a medium level of final consistency, anti-sagging, and thickening effect. In these aspects, MP is better than MP.

In addition to being cellulose ethers manufacturers, Mikem also produces construction chemicals that can be dispersed in latex powder, concrete fibers, etc. This two products in table is Both products are suitable for use in tile adhesive cement-based formulations. Both Dow and Mikem dispersible latex powders are obtained by spray drying vinyl acetate. Combines the performance and benefits of liquid latex. It can be quickly dissolved in water, has perfect water release characteristics, long open time, perfect anti-slip and temperature resistance to contact, especially suitable for high-quality cement-based rubber powder formulations.

If you want to find good cellulose ether manufacturers in China, you may be more concerned about the quality, price, capacity, and whether the cellulose ether manufacturer is a real, trader or manufacturer.
Are you a manufacturer or a trader: Most Of Chinese cellulose ether manufacturers are located in Shandong and Hebei. They all have their own supply chain systems. I have a very simple way of determining whether it is a manufacturer or not. The average manufacturer offers much less product than a supplier. Hope this little way can help you.
Capacity problem: Many cellulose ether buyers like to stock up on Dow, Lotte, and Estée because their production capacity is relatively large, they can provide a stable supply of goods, and can quickly stock up and ship. The annual production capacity respectively are 100,000 tons, 40,000 tons. 8,000 tons.
China can get such a level, known as Shandong Head, 37,000 tons. At present, Heda mainly specializes in high-end fields, especially pharmaceutical grade, and food grade cellulose ether production. Shandong Mikem provides construction-grade cellulose ether with an annual production capacity of about 50,000 tons.
Price problem: You must know that prices abroad are generally higher than at home. The price in Hebei, China, is lower, but there are also certain quality problems.
Quality issues: Speaking of cellulose ether manufacturers in China, you must be worried about the quality of products at Alibaba, especially small and medium-sized enterprises in Hebei. Mikem is an American brand that is able to offer high-quality cellulose ether products.
