Hydroxyethyl Methylcellulose for Dry Mix Mortar

Dry Mix Mortar

Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose (HEMC) is an indispensable raw material for dry mortars, and the many benefits of HEMC can be a great way to improve the performance, workability and durability of dry mortars.
Below we describe the benefits of HEMC added to dry mix mortars.

Advantages of adding hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose(HEMC) to Dry Mix Mortar

Extended Open Time:

HEMC increases the open time of the mortar, allowing workers enough time to navigate adjustments and finish the job, ensuring a higher quality finish that looks better.

Improved workability:

HEMC improves the workability of the mortar, making it easy to work and spread, it ensures a smoother consistency of the mortar, reduces the physical effort of the workers during the construction process and improves the efficiency of the workers.

Increased Adhesion:

HEMC enhances the bonding strength of the mortar and ensures a stronger bond between the mortar and the substrate, which improves the structural integrity and enhances the life of the product.

Sag Resistance

HEMC helps to reduce sagging so that thicker layers can be constructed without the risk of mortar slipping or sliding. This is particularly beneficial for vertical and elevated applications.

Superior water retention:

With excellent water retention properties, HEMC ensures that the mortar stays hydrated for longer periods. This leads to better curing and reduces the risk of cracks and shrinkage.

Consistency and Uniformity

The inclusion of HEMC in dry mix mortar ensures consistent quality across batches, leading to uniform performance and reliability in construction projects.

Eco-friendly performance

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.

Dry mix mortar testing with HEMC addition

Mortar with HEMC added screeds up smoother and has a smoother surface.
This effectively increases the time of workability and improves the efficiency of the workers.

Frequently Asked Questions by Customers

HEMC enhances the consistency and spreadability of the mortar, making it easier to apply and work with. This reduces the effort needed during application and ensures a smoother finish.

Improved water retention ensures that the mortar stays hydrated for longer periods, leading to better curing, reduced risk of cracks and shrinkage, and overall enhanced durability.

Yes, HEMC enhances the adhesive properties of the mortar, ensuring a stronger bond between the mortar and the substrate. This improves the structural integrity and longevity of the construction.

HEMC increases the sag resistance of the mortar, allowing for the application of thicker layers without the risk of slipping or sliding, which is particularly beneficial for vertical and overhead applications.

HEMC increases the open time of the mortar, giving workers more flexibility to adjust and finish the application without rushing, ensuring a higher quality finish.

The optimal dosage of HEMC depends on the specific requirements of your project and the properties of the other ingredients in your mortar mix. It's recommended to start with a small percentage (typically 0.2-0.5% by weight) and adjust based on performance.

HEMC should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage ensures the longevity and effectiveness of the product.
