HPMC, which stands for Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose, is a commonly used additive in the construction industry. It is a synthetic polymer that is water-soluble and commonly used as a thickener, binder, emulsifier, and stabilizer. In construction, HPMC is commonly used as a component of dry mix mortars, which are pre-blended mixtures of cement, sand, and […]

Gel temperature is an important indicator of cellulose ether. The aqueous solution of cellulose ether has thermal gel properties. As the temperature increases, the viscosity continues to decrease. When the temperature of the solution reaches a certain value, the cellulose ether solution is no longer transparent, but forms a white colloid, and finally loses its […]

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a versatile polymer that is commonly used in the construction industry. In skim coat applications, HPMC is used as a thickener and water-retaining agent to improve the workability and adhesion of the product. Skim coat is a thin layer of mortar or plaster that is applied to a substrate, such […]

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a polymer widely used in the construction industry. It is a white or off-white, odorless, and tasteless powder that is easily soluble in water. In construction, HPMC is primarily used as a water-retaining agent, thickener, and binder in cement-based products. One of the main benefits of using HPMC in construction […]

Water retention: HPMC is an effective water retention agent that can prevent the water in the wall putty from evaporating too quickly. This helps to maintain a consistent moisture level in the putty, making it easier to work with and reducing the risk of cracking or shrinking. Thickening: HPMC can thicken the wall putty, which […]

Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) is a natural polymer materials as raw materials,through a series of chemical processing and prepared non-ionic cellulose. Wall putty(Skim Coat) is a kind of decorative materials to make wall surface smooth, it can be used in exterior and interior wall decoration. Cellulose HPMC plays an essential role in wall putty(skim coat) […]

Usually, when we say the performance of a tile adhesive is good or not, in addition to its operational performance and anti-slip ability, we also pay attention to its mechanical strength and open time. In addition to affecting the rheological properties of the tile adhesive, cellulose ethers have strong influence on the mechanical properties of […]

The primary function of HPMC in tile adhesives is water-retaining and thickening. The purpose is to increase the final solidification strength of the tile adhesive, extend the open time, and improve its workability. Usually, when we evaluate the performance of tile adhesive, in addition to its workability and anti-sliding ability, we also pay attention to […]

Dry-mix mortars, such as tile adhesives and plasters, are often enhanced with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose products. By adding HPMC to tile adhesives and plaster mortar formulations, HPMC increases the product’s workability and enhances its adhesion. Additionally, HPMC improves the finish of mortar by providing flexibility and reducing shrinkage cracks. These advantages make it an ideal additive for a wide range of applications ranging […]
