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.
Excellent performance as a water retention agent
Good thickening/thickening efficiency
Wide range of molecular weights and viscosities are available
Excellent tolerance to dissolved inorganic salts
Low toxicity and environmental friendliness
Excellent solution clarity
MHEC proves to be a valuable cellulose derivative, providing excellent performance and ease of use in various applications, particularly in dry mix mortars. Its properties, such as water retention, viscosity stability, anti-sagging effect, and high early strength, contribute to improved performance and enhanced workability in construction and other industries.
