Industrial grade HPMC

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is widely used in gypsum based plasters, cement based
plasters, mortars, tile adhesive, putty and tile grouts.

It has good water retention and improve the workability. It can also prolong the open time and improve
sag resistence.

Application

Tile adhesive

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) provides water retention and workability to tile adhesive and
grouts. It also improves adhesion, reduce skinning, and increase open time.

Gypsum-based plasters

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) imparts workability, and consistency to gypsum-based and
cement-based plasters. It also provide water retention and sag resistance.
