Relationship between Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) and Tile Filler
Furthermore, MHEC acts as a water retention agent, preventing the premature evaporation of water from the cement mixture. This is especially important in hot and dry climates, where rapid water loss can lead to shrinkage and cracking of the cement. By retaining water, MHEC ensures that the cement cures properly, resulting in a stronger and more durable final product.
