Cellulose etherso se aiga o polymers solu vai e maua mai le cellulose, o se polymer masani e maua i totonu o puipui sela o laau.O le faʻasologa o vailaʻau o cellulose ethers e ausia e ala i suiga faʻasolosolo o le cellulose e ala i le faʻaofiina o vaega ether eseese.O ethers cellulose masani e aofia ai Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC), Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC), Methyl Cellulose (MC), Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC), ma isi.O fausaga kemikolo o nei cellulose ethers e faapea:

1. Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC):
   • O vaega o le hydroxyethyl e fa'aofiina i totonu o le fausaga o le cellulose.
   • Fa'atonuga o vaila'au: [Cellulose] – [O-CH2-CH2-OH]
2. Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC):
   • Hydroxypropyl ma methyl vaega e faʻafeiloaʻi i totonu o le fausaga o le cellulose.
   • Fa'asologa o Vailaau: [Cellulose] – [O-CH2-CHOH-CH3] ma le [O-CH3]
3. Methyl Cellulose (MC):
   • O vaega methyl e faʻafeiloaʻi i totonu o le fausaga o le cellulose.
   • Fa'atonuga o vaila'au: [Cellulose] – [O-CH3]
4. Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC):
   • Carboxymethyl vaega o loʻo faʻafeiloaʻi i totonu o le fausaga o le cellulose.
   • Fa'atonuga o vaila'au: [Cellulose] – [O-CH2-COOH]

E mafai ona fesuisuiaʻi le fausaga o vailaʻau saʻo e faʻatatau i le tikeri o le suitulaga (DS) ma isi mea e fesoʻotaʻi ma le gaosiga o gaosiga.O le faʻaofiina o nei vaega o le ether e tuʻuina atu ai mea faʻapitoa i ether cellulose taʻitasi, e pei o le solubility o le vai, faʻafefeteina gafatia, ata-fausia gafatia, ma isi mea.

O tagata gaosiga o cellulose ethers e aofia uma ai kamupani fa'avaomalo ma fa'aitulagi.O nisi o gaosiga iloga i le cellulose ethers alamanuia e aofia ai:

1. Kima Chemical:
   • O Kima Chemical ose kamupani fa'alenu'u fa'alenu'u cellulose ether e gaosia ai vaila'au eseese, e aofia ai le cellulose ethers.
2. Shin-Etsu:
   • Shin-Etsu, fa'avae i Iapani, ua lauiloa mo le gaosiga o vaila'au eseese, e aofia ai le cellulose derivatives.
3. Ashland Inc.:
   • O Ashland ose kamupani vaila'au fa'apitoa fa'alelalolagi e gaosia ai le cellulose ethers ma isi oloa.
4. CP Kelco:
   • O le CP Kelco ose ta'uta'ua i le lalolagi e gaosia mea fa'apitoa hydrocolloids, e aofia ai le cellulose ethers.
5. AkzoNobel:
   • AkzoNobel ose kamupani fa'alotoifale e gaosia le tele o vaila'au fa'apitoa, e aofia ai le cellulose ethers.
6. Nouryon (muamua AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals):
   • O Nouryon ose fa'atosina tele o vaila'au fa'apitoa, ma fa'aauauina le talatuu o AkzoNobel Specialty Chemicals.

O nei kamupani o loʻo i ai se tulaga taua i le maketi o le cellulose ethers ma tuʻuina atu le tele o togi ma fesuiaiga e faʻafetaui ai manaoga eseese o pisinisi ma pisinisi.Pe a faʻaaogaina cellulose ethers, e taua tele le faʻafesoʻotaʻi i faʻamaumauga o oloa faʻapitoa na tuʻuina atu e le gaosiga mo faʻamatalaga auʻiliʻili i meatotino, tulaga faʻaoga fautuaina, ma isi faʻamatalaga faʻapitoa.
