Six functions of redispersible polymer powder

1. Improve bonding strength and cohesion. In cement dry powder mortar products, it is extremely necessary to add redispersible latex powder. It is very significant to improve the bonding strength and cohesion of materials. This is due to the infiltration of polymer particles into the pores and capillaries of the cement matrix and the hydration […]

The Working Mechanism of RDP in Mortar

Dispersible polymer powder is physically mixed with other inorganic binders(such as cement, slaked lime, gypsum, clay, etc) and various aggregates, fillers and other additives such as Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose(HPMC), polysaccharide(starch ether) and cellulose, finally to produce mortar. When the dry mortar is added to the water and stirred, the rubber powder particles are dispersed into the […]

Application Effects of HPMC

Adding an appropriate amount of HPMC to tile adhesives can significantly improve their overall performance. Studies show that an HPMC content of about 0.2%-0.5% is generally sufficient to achieve desired results. The specific benefits include: – Extended Open Time Provides greater flexibility during application, reducing rework. – Enhanced Anti-Slip Properties Prevents tiles from slipping, especially […]

Functions of HPMC in Tile Adhesives

Thickening Effect HPMC serves as a thickening agent in tile adhesives, significantly increasing the consistency of the slurry and preventing sagging during application. This is particularly crucial for vertical surfaces, where the adhesive must stay in place to ensure proper tile adhesion. Water Retention HPMC’s excellent water retention properties slow down the evaporation of water, […]
