The advanges of HPMC & MHEC in dry mix mortar products
November 22nd 2024
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, also called hpmc, is used in many industries and can be used as a variety of additives. Among them, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is most commonly used in the construction industry. It has very good performance, good water retention, thickening, and construction performance. Let us focus on the water retention of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose:
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is very hydrophilic, and its aqueous solution also has a very high viscosity. At present, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose is used more in cement mortar. If it is added to gypsum, mortar and paint, it can maintain high water retention. Compared with other melting polymers, it is The viscoelasticity of the aqueous solution is better. In addition, its addition can improve the performance of ceramics, so that its shape is not damaged.
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, also known as hpmc, has good lubricity. Adding it can reduce the coefficient of friction and improve the lubrication between ceramic products and cement products. In fact, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose has very good flexibility and its performance is very good.
In short, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose has very good performance, which is indispensable in many industries and has been well received by users. With the continuous upgrading of technology, the research on hydroxypropyl methylcellulose has become more and more in-depth, and it is believed that its use will become wider and wider.
