Drymix Mortar

Application

The most important property of hydroxyethyl cellulose powder is that it acts as a thickener, in creasing the viscosity of the liquid,and its thickening depends on its concentration. If you're searching for a versatile solution that enhances the performance of your products, look no further than Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) powder.

Gypsum Special Grade HPMC

The gypsum special grade hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose HPMC has the characteristics of high water retention, dispersibility, good fineness, good workability and easy dissolution. widely used in gypsum products like gypsum plaster, adhesive plaster, embedded gypsum, tile adhesives etc.

Daily Chemical Products Additive

Daily Chemical HPMC has a variety of properties such as thickening, foam stabllization,emulifiation, and easy dispersion. Shampoo Additive HPMC has good compatibility with various additives of other daily chemical products. It is widely used in detergents, shower gels, shampoos, hand sanitizers, and laundry liquid and other products.

Tile Adhesive Additive

Tile Adhesive Additive HPMC can ensure the smooth construction on difterent base surtaces, even when the ambient temperalure is relalively harsh, the tile adhesive can be given a long enough open time and adjustable time.

Gypsum Additive

In gypsum products, the focus is on water retention, retardation and lubrication. Different gypsum has different effects on product performance, so thickening, water retention, and retardation determine the quality of gypsum building materials.

Mortar Additive

Adding hydroxypropyl metylellulose can improve anti-sip performance, improve wetting performance, thicken, improve batch scraping and slipping, easy to level, improve surface performance and strength, and have very good compatibility with other additives.

Putty Powder Additive

Hydroxypropyl metylcellulose is a commonly used raw material in powdered building materials, which greatly improves the slip performance and anti-sag performance of the construction, improves the wettability, improves the anti-slip performance of the putty, improves the leveling effect of the putty, and improves the construction eficlency.

Technical Guidelines for Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC)

As a professional manufacturer of architectural-grade HPMC, we provide you with comprehensive technical guidance and problem-solving support throughout the production and application processes.

How much do you know about Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose(HPMC)?

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a non-ionic cellulose ether obtained by cellulose alkalization, etherification, neutralization and washing. HPMC has good thickening, dispersing, emulsifying, film-forming properties, etc.It is the first choice for production of high quality building materials additives.

How to improve the adhesion of putty

When encountering the projects that have been constructed, it is found that the adhesion of putty on the exterior wall is poor, the following methods can be adopted to improve the adhesion of putty:

Dissolution Method

Take the required amount of hot water into the container and heat to above 85., stir slowly and add the product gradually The cellulose initially floats on the water, but gradually disperses in water and forms homogeneous slurry. Goon stirring until it cools down and becomes clear

Regarding the relationship between viscosity and temperature in HPMC (HPMC viscosity), what should be noted in practical applications?

1. Interior wall putty powder: Heavy calcium carbonate 800KG, light calcium carbonate 150KG (Starch ether, pure Qing, Peng run soil, citric acid, polyacrylamide, etc., can be added as appropriate). 2. Exterior wall putty powder: Cement 350KG, heavy calcium carbonate 500KG, quartz sand 150KG, latex powder 8-12KG, cellulose ether 3KG, starch ether 0.5KG, wood fiber 2KG.

What are the formulations for interior and exterior wall putty powder?

The dosage of HPMC in actual application varies depending on factors such as climate, temperature, local lime and calcium quality, putty powder formulation, and the desired quality specified by the customer. Generally, it ranges between 4 kg to 5 kg. For example, in Beijing, most putty powders use around 5 kg; in Guizhou, it is mostly 5 kg in summer and 4.5 kg in winter; in Yunnan, the dosage is smaller, usually around 3 kg to 4 kg, and so on.

What is the dosage of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) in putty powder?

The two main indicators most users are concerned about are the content of hydroxypropyl and viscosity. Higher hydroxypropyl content generally indicates better water retention. A higher viscosity also provides relatively better water retention (not absolute), and HPMC with higher viscosity is more suitable for cement mortar.

What is the recommended viscosity of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC)?

In simple terms, "non-ionic" refers to a substance that does not ionize in water. Ionization refers to the process in which electrolytes dissolve in specific solvents (such as water or alcohol) and dissociate into freely moving charged ions. For example, table salt we consume daily—sodium chloride (NaCl)—when dissolved in water, ionizes and produces freely moving sodium ions with a positive charge and chloride ions with a negative charge. In other words, when HPMC is placed in water, it does not dissociate into charged ions but exists in molecular form.

HPMC VS MHEC: Differences and Applications in Construction Industry

The key difference between HPMC and MHEC lies in their gel temperature. The gel temperature of HPMC is generally around 60–75℃, depending on the group content and production process, whereas the gel temperature of MHEC is usually above 80℃.
