Water-based and emulsion-based ink formulations require reliable stabilization to maintain uniformity, support pigment dispersion, and promote consistent application performance. Lattice^® NTC-90 is a water-dispersible colloidal microcrystalline cellulose designed to improve stability and homogeneity in emulsion-based ink systems while imparting low levels of viscosity.

Ethyl cellulose, commonly referred to as EC, is a cellulose ether made by chemically modifying cellulose so that some of the hydroxyl groups on the polysaccharide backbone are substituted with ethyl ether groups. This modification gives ethyl cellulose a useful balance of hydrophobicity, organosolubility, film-forming ability, binding performance, and rheology control.

Mercaptans, also known as thiols, are sulfur-containing organic compounds used across chemical manufacturing as intermediates, sulfur sources, and polymer modifiers. In polymer and resin manufacturing, selected mercaptans are widely used as chain transfer agents in free- radical polymerization processes, where they help control polymer chain growth and final molecular weight.

DOWFROST™ LC is an inhibited propylene glycol-based heat transfer fluid designed specifically for liquid cooling systems where thermal performance, corrosion protection, freeze protection, and system compatibility are critical. Its primary applications in data center environments are Direct-to-Chip cooling and support for in-rack closed-loop and in-row close-coupled cooling systems.

CELLOSIZE™ hydroxyethyl cellulose is a plant-based rheology modifier manufactured by Dow, used to improve the performance of chemical formulations across diverse industrial applications. For manufacturers seeking greater formulation consistency, CELLOSIZE™ helps support controlled viscosity, improved stability, water retention, and film formation across production, storage, application, and final use.
