High Strength Vae Powder for Cement Based Mortar
High-strength Vae powder, also known as redispersible polymer powder (RDP), is a type of water-soluble powder commonly used as an additive in cement-based mortars to improve their performance. It is made from a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate (EVA), which gives it its unique properties.
Here are some of the benefits of using high-strength Vae powder in cement-based mortars:
- Increased strength and cohesion: Vae powder helps to bind the cement particles together more effectively, resulting in a stronger and more cohesive mortar.
- Improved workability: Vae powder makes the mortar more workable, which means that it is easier to mix and apply.
- Reduced water absorption: Vae powder helps to reduce the amount of water that the mortar absorbs, which can help to prevent cracking and shrinkage.
- Improved freeze-thaw resistance: Vae powder can help to improve the freeze-thaw resistance of mortar, which is important in cold climates.
- Better bond strength: Vae powder can help to improve the bond strength between the mortar and the substrate.
