Cellulose ethers (e.g., HPMC, MHEC) and Redispersible Polymer Powder (RDP) are part of the tile adhesives formulation, and they play an essential role in improving product efficiency and performance.
Descriptions
Cellulose ether for Cement Tile Adhesive (CTA)
Tile adhesive is the compound used to stick the tiles to the wall or floor. It is ready-mixed and specially formulated from OPC, selected fine sand, and additives to improve its essential properties for laying tiles. The addition of proper additives, like gomez cellulose ethers, can improve the final performance of tile adhesives.
- Enable tile adhesive a longer open time.
- Improve workability without sticking trowel.
- Increase sag-resistance and wettability.
As a functional decorative material, ceramic tile has been widely used worldwide, the ceramic tiles have different shapes and sizes, and the unit weight and density are also varied. And how to stick this durable material has always been a concern. The appearance of tile adhesive guarantees the reliable bonding effect to a certain extent.
Improved sag resistance
MaiSi Cellulose RDP Products can improve sag resistance feature of the adhesives. Better sag resistance means that tile adhensive can be applied more efficiently to walls without sag.
Improved adhesion
Gomez Cellulose RDP have good thickening effect, It can enhance the consistency and bond strength of the Tile adhesives. Suitable addition rate of it makes it has better adhesion feature.
Improved workability
Better leveling and reduced stickiness of Gomez Cellulose RDP can be applied easily to adhesives, which easy to operate and construction, and can significantly improve the construction efficiency.
Improved heat and freeze thaw resistance
After add the Gomez Cellulose RDP, the heat and freeze thaw resistance of tile adhesives has improved.
Improved water retention
Gomez Cellulose RDP substantially reduce the loss of water into absorbing substrates in formulations. The water retention ability of also strongly enhances the adhesion strength of wall tile adhesives. This is because the binders have enough time for hydration and at the same time do not lose water.
