Thickening Industries and Their Impact on Market Trends and Innovations
One of the key advantages of MHEC over Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) lies in its superior water retention, viscosity stability, mildew resistance, and dispersibility. MHEC demonstrates enhanced anti-sagging effects, allowing it to prevent material slumping or sagging during application. It also offers a longer open time, providing more flexibility for workability and adjustments. Additionally, MHEC exhibits high early strength and adapts well to high-temperature conditions. It is easy to mix and operate when added to dry mix mortars, simplifying the overall application process.
