Cellulose Ethers MHEC HEMC Thickener in Building Materials

Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose (MHEC) is also named as Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEMC),used as high efficient water retention agent, stabilizer, adhesives and film-forming agent in kinds of building materials.is widely used in industrial applications ,such as construction, detergent ,paint and coating ,we also can provide HEMC according to customers requirements. After modified and surface treatment, we can get the goods which is dispersed in water quickly, lengthen open time, anti-sagging, etc.

HEMC application guide in building materials industry:

1. External wall insulation system (EIFS)

Bonding strength: Selecting the appropriate amount of HEMC can greatly increase the bonding strength of the bonding mortar.

2. Internal and external wall interface agent

Excellent water retention: HEMC can significantly reduce the moisture absorbed by the wall. Good water retention, on the one hand can guarantee cement . With a longer combination time, on the other hand, it can ensure that workers can scrape the putty on the wall many times.

3. Tile adhesive

Improve the wettability of mortar: HEMC gives the mortar consistency, improves the wetting ability of mortar and ceramic tile and substrate, and improves the wet mortar. The cohesive force, especially for high water-cement ratio formula.

4. Jointing agent

Anti-sagging: HEMC can make the slurry adhere to the surface firmly without sagging

5. Self-leveling mortar

Maintain fluidity and improve water retention: HEMC with low viscosity will not affect the flow effect of the slurry, which is convenient for construction. At the same time the water-retaining property makes the surface effect after self-leveling good, avoiding the occurrence of cracks.

6. Plaster-based plaster

Water retention: HEMC can retain the water in the mortar, so that the gypsum is completely solidified. The higher the viscosity of the solution, the stronger the water retention capacity, on the contrary, the water retention capacity is reduced.

7. Ceramic extrusion

HEMC can provide good lubricity and plasticity, can fully provide the operability of ceramic product mold tires, very low ash content can be. After calcination, it has a very dense internal structure, and the product surface is round and delicate.
