What is Methyl Cellulose features for construction grade?
- Tile Adhesive: Methyl Cellulose as a thickener and water-retaining agent, can form a dense film in tile adhesive to enhance its adhesion
- Wall Putty/Skim coat: Methyl Cellulose Powder (MC) in putty powder mainly plays the role of thickening, water retention, enhancing adhesion and improving construction performance.
- Dry Mix Mortar: Methyl Cellulose in dry-mix mortar is mainly reflected in improving water retention, increasing adhesion, thickening, affecting setting time, air entrainment, etc
- Gypsum based or Cement based mortar: Methyl Cellulose Powder as a mortar additive can increase the viscosity of the mortar and reduce the shrinkage of the mortar. This makes the mortar easier to construct and more durabile
- Self Leveling: Methylcellulose (MC) plays an important role in self-leveling mortar, mainly including thickening and water retention, preventing cracking, and increasing hardening speed and strength.
