Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a widely used additive in construction materials, particularly in mortar. It plays a crucial role in improving the water retention capacity of mortar, which has a significant impact on its overall performance and quality. Traditional Methods of Water Retention: The traditional method of addressing water retention issues in mortar is to […]
Imparts excellent alkali resistance to the mortar. Increases compressive strength and flexural strength of the mortar. Reduces the elastic modulus of the mortar, enhances deformability, and minimizes cracking. The addition of latex powder improves the elongation at break of the mortar, thereby enhancing its impact toughness. Additionally, it provides effective stress dispersion in the mortar. […]
Cement-Based Plaster Mortar Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose improves uniformity, making it easier to apply plaster mortar and enhancing its resistance to sagging. It enhances flowability and pumpability, thereby improving work efficiency. Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose has high water retention, prolonging the working time of the mortar, improving work efficiency, and contributing to the formation of high mechanical […]
