Functional Cellulose Gels by JRS

This is a water-insoluble, micro-crystalline cellulose that is processed with a water-soluble spacer in a special production process. The fiber-gel is a whitish powder that disperses in water, forms a three-dimensional network and that way can be used as a multifunctional additive in water-based systems.
Called also MCG: Microcrystalline Cellulose Gel.

***Replacement of bentonite with ARBOCEL fiber gel:
Calcium carbonate slurry - Bentonite is responsible for stabilization
Anionic bituminous emulsions - Bentonite is responsible for stabilization of the emulsion 
Ready to use putty - Bentonite is responsible for the standability on the wall 
 
***Other Applications:
Dispersion adhesives / Water-based ready to use products (plasters) / Undercoats and primers / Paper industry / Anionic bitumen emulsions / Agriculture / Detergency
