Tile Adhesives
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is an important additive in tile adhesive formulations. High-quality HEC from Man Hong Chemical enhances the performance of tile adhesives, ensuring superior bond strength and ease of use. Our HEC can be customized to meet specific needs and is ideal for a variety of constructions. applications.
Advantages of adding hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) to tile adhesives
Improved bonding:
HEC significantly improves the bonding strength of tile adhesives and ensures that tiles are firmly bonded to a variety of substrate surfaces, thereby reducing the risk of peeling or movement.
Improved workability:
HEC helps the tile adhesive to work smoothly and spread easily even on surfaces with complex grooves, greatly providing worker efficiency.
Anti-Sagging Performance:
Anti-Sagging Performance: HEC prevents the risk of tile adhesive sagging and drooping, especially in vertical scenarios.
Better Durability:
Better Durability: Enhances the mechanical properties of the tile adhesive, providing better resistance to water, temperature changes and external impacts. Performs in extreme temperatures.
Reduced shrinkage:
Improved water retention: HEC creates a protective layer that enhances the water retention of the adhesive, allowing it to work for an optimal amount of time in humid environments. This one feature has a great effect on adhesives.
Improved water retention:
HEC allows the adhesive to maximize shrinkage and cracking during the drying process, resulting in stronger tiles that last longer.
Improve consistency
HEC can make the various mixtures in the adhesive mix well, less likely to agglomerate, and improve the consistency of the product, so that it is easy to obtain more excellent results from the adhesive.
Environmental Efficiency：
Environmentally friendly production: It is produced with environmentally friendly raw materials and processes, and does not contain harmful substances, which is safe for both users and the environment.
Detection of HEC-added tile adhesives
One of the most important criteria for testing tile adhesives is – the degree of slip.
Testing the bond strength of tile bonding
Test the open time of the tile adhesive, which is usually 20 minutes to be able to effectively stick tiles repeatedly.
Tests the ability of an adhesive, once cured, to withstand external pressure without breaking.

Frequently Asked Questions by Customers
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a non-ionic, water-soluble polymer that enhances the performance of tile adhesives. It is used for its excellent thickening, suspending, and binding properties, which improve the adhesive's strength, workability, and water retention.
HEC increases the viscosity of the adhesive, providing a better bond between the tile and the substrate. This results in a stronger, more durable adhesion that prevents tiles from loosening or detaching over time.
Yes, HEC is versatile and can be used with various types of tiles, including ceramic, porcelain, and stone, as well as a wide range of substrates like concrete, drywall, and wood.
The recommended ratio of HEC varies depending on the specific formulation and desired consistency. It is typically used at 0.2% to 1.0% of the total weight of the adhesive mix. For precise formulation, consult the product's technical datasheet or contact our technical support team.
HEC should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage conditions help maintain its quality and extend its shelf life to up to two years.
Yes, HEC is non-toxic and safe for use in construction materials. It is biodegradable and environmentally friendly, making it a preferred choice for sustainable building practices.
By enhancing the performance and workability of tile adhesives, HEC reduces the amount of adhesive required for effective bonding, leading to cost savings on materials and labor.
