Li-ether tsa cellulose ke sehlopha se fapaneng sa lintho tse nkiloeng tse fumanoang ka ho fetola cellulose ea tlhaho ka lik'hemik'hale, e leng karolo e ka sehloohong ea mabota a sele ea limela. Mofuta o itseng oa ether ea cellulose o khethoa ke mofuta oa liphetoho tsa lik'hemik'hale tse hlahisitsoeng mokokotlong oa cellulose. Mona ke mefuta e meng e tloaelehileng ea li-ether tsa cellulose, e 'ngoe le e 'ngoe e na le thepa ea eona e ikhethang le ts'ebeliso:

1. Selelulose ea Methyl (MC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa methyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing.
     • E sebelisoa thepa ea kaho (li-mortar, likhomaretsi), lihlahisoa tsa lijo, le meriana (li-coating tsa matlapa).
2. Selulose ea Hydroxyethyl (HEC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa hydroxyethyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing haholo.
     • E sebelisoa hangata litlolong, lihlahisoa tsa tlhokomelo ea botho, lipenteng le meriana.
3. Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa hydroxypropyl le methyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing.
     • E sebelisoa haholo thepa ea kaho (li-mortar, li-coat), meriana le lihlahisoa tsa lijo.
4. Selulose ea Carboxymethyl (CMC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa carboxymethyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing.
     • E sebelisoa e le setefatsi le sehatsetsi lihlahisoa tsa lijo, meriana, masela le maro a ho tjheka.
5. Selulose ea Hydroxypropyl (HPC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa hydroxypropyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing.
     • E sebelisoa hangata meriana e le sebindi, sesebelisoa sa ho etsa filimi, le se tenya.
6. Selulose ea Ethyl (EC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa ethyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • Ha e qhibilihe ka metsing.
     • E sebelisoa ho penteng, lifiliming le mefuteng ea meriana e lokolloang ka taolo.
7. Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose (HEMC):
   • Phetoho ea Lik'hemik'hale: Kenyelletso ea lihlopha tsa hydroxyethyl le methyl mokokotlong oa cellulose.
   • Matlotlo le Litšebeliso:
     • E qhibilihang ka metsing.
     • E sebediswa haholo disebedisweng tsa kaho (di-mortar, di-grout), dipente le ditlolo.

Mefuta ena ea li-ether tsa cellulose e khethoa ho latela thepa ea tsona e ikhethang le mesebetsi e hlokahalang bakeng sa lits'ebetso tse fapaneng. Liphetoho tsa lik'hemik'hale li khetholla ho qhibiliha, ho teteana, le litšobotsi tse ling tsa ts'ebetso ea ether e 'ngoe le e 'ngoe ea cellulose, e leng se etsang hore e be li-additives tse feto-fetohang liindastering tse kang tsa kaho, meriana, lijo, litlolo le tse ling.
