Compound Q&A
How should Hydroxyethyl cellulose (CAS: 9004-62-0) be stored?
Answer
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is stable under normal storage conditions and typically requires a storage temperature between 15°C to 25°C. Maintaining low humidity is essential to prevent clumping, and it should be kept in airtight containers to avoid moisture absorption and contamination.
