Applications & Uses
- Coating End Applications
- Product Applications
- Bermocoll® E 230 FQ is used in latex paints, particularly for stabilizing the dispersion state with only moderate simultaneous viscosity increase.
- Normal dosage is 0.5 - 0.8 % calculated on the total paint weight.
- Bermocoll® E 230 FQ is easily dispersed in cold water of pH 7 or less.
- Bermocoll® E 230 FQ can form lumps when added to an alkaline liquid. To avoid this, it should be added as a ready stock solution, as a slurry in slight acid water or in an organic solvent, or as a dry mix with other powder materials. The dissolving time after dispersion is influenced by the water pH. Alkaline additives can be used to speed up the dissolving process.

Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Packaging Information
- Like many industrial processed powdery materials, cellulose ether dust are combustible and can cause dust explosions.
- Dust formation must be avoided or kept to a minimum.
- Care should be taken to prevent ignition from heat, spark, open flames or hot surface. B
- ermocoll® E 230 FQ is packed in polyethylene plastic bags.
- Net weight 20 kg.
- We recommend emptying the bags from the bottom.
- The empty bags can be recycled or burned.
