Ethyl cellulose is a non-toxic polysaccharide type gelator widely used in surface coatings and biomedical applications.
Application
Ethyl cellulose can be used:
- To prepare oleogels for the ophthalmic delivery of hydrophilic drugs.
- As a coating agent to synthesize flexible bioplastics for packaging applications.
- To prepare CuO/Cu2O granules for thermochemical heat storage applications.
