Can ASHACEL® ethylcellulose films be used as a water vapor barrier?
When you specify an ASHACEL® cellulose ether product, you get that performance from fast-curing films that won’t bottleneck production rates. Consider coatings or matrices of ASHACEL® ethylcellulose when you need a water vapor barrier to improve product shelf life or prevent hydrolysis of ingredients. Where taste masking is needed, thin films of ASHACEL® polymers often provide excellent barrier properties.
