Abstract The process for preparing water-soluble mixed cellulose ethers proceeds in the following steps: a) alkalization of the cellulose, b) etherification of the alkali cellulose in the presence of a base, using at least one etherifying agent which requires, for the reaction with cellulose, a catalytic and sub-stoichiometric quantity of a base, and c) after increasing the quantity of base, further etherifi- cation of the cellulose ether so prepared, using at least one etherifying agent which requires, for the reaction with cellulose, an at least stoichiometric quantity of a base or a catalytic and sub-stoichiometric quantity of a base, increased over the quantity used in (a), with at least one inert organic solvent being used as a dis- persing auxiliary in at least one of the steps and water being present in all steps. The organic solvent used is dimethyl ether, which either is used alone or in a mixture with dimeth- oxyethane, an alkanol, an alkanediol and/or an alkoxyalkanol. The process serves, in particular, for the preparation of methyl-hydroxyethyl cellulose or methyl-hydroxypropyl cellulose.
