Application of Hydroxyethyl methyl Cellulose(HPMC) in Dry-mixed Mortar

1.Water retention:  HPMC is mainly used as water retaining agent in dry-mixed mortar. It helps to retain moisture in the mortar, ensuring that the mortar has enough time to hydrate the cementing material after construction. By retaining water, HPMC is contribute to improve the construction performance of mortar and extend its working life. 2.Thickening and wet viscosity:  HPMC can thicken the […]

Hot soluble type (Non-surface treated) HPMC dissolution methods

If the hot soluble type (Non-surface treated) HPMC is added directly to the water, agglomeration will occur before dissolution. However, dissolving in this way is very slow and difficult. Here we recommend three dissolution methods for end users based on different applications: 1 Hot water dissolution method: Since HPMC is not dissolved in hot water, […]

hpmc for skim coat

1. Water Retention HPMC has excellent water-retaining properties. When mixed with skim coat materials, it helps to keep the mixture workable for extended periods. This is particularly advantageous during application, as it prevents the mixture from drying out too quickly, allowing for even and consistent application. The enhanced workability reduces the risk of cracking and […]

The role of HPMC in cement

Water retention: HPMC acts as a water retaining agent in cementitious materials. It forms a thin film around the cement particles, preventing excessive evaporation of water during the hydration process. This enhances workability and extends setting time, allowing for better placement and finishing of concrete. Improve Processability: HPMC controls the rheology of cement mixtures, enhancing […]
