Tile adhesive is a new type of modern decorative material used to paste decorative materials such as ceramic tiles, face tiles, floor tiles and so on. There are many kinds of additives in tile adhesive, but usually adding cellulose ether additives to tile adhesive can improve water retention, thickening effect and open time.

The Role Of HPMC In Tile Adhesive/Glue: 

Adjust the open time of tile adhesive: 

Cellulose Ether HPMC/MHPC will form thin film on the surface of tile adhesive to reduce moisture evaporation. Help tile adhesive increase the open time.

Increase tensile strength:

 The good property of water retention could make sure keep enough water for cement hydration.

Good workability:

Choose the right Cellulose Ether HPMC/MHPC, could make the mortar easy to scrape on the wall, increase the efficiency.

Increase the anti-slip property: 

Can increase the binding strength of wet mortar, increase the anti-slip property.

Overall, Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) plays a crucial role in enhancing the performance and reliability of tile adhesives, providing improved adhesion, water retention, workability, slip resistance, and flexibility. Its versatility and compatibility make it a preferred choice for formulating high-quality Tile adhesives suitable for various installation applications.
