Cement extrusion is a complex process used to produce construction materials such as base plates, clapboards, and bricks, suitable for interior and exterior applications, as well as sound insulation. These materials are made using mixtures of cement, aggregates, fibers, and water. With asbestos now prohibited by law, the use of cement extruded boards as a replacement has become increasingly important. Modified and non-modified cellulose ether grades of both MHEC and MHPC can be added to dry mortars to enhance the performance of the cement mixture, improving workability and resulting in a stronger, more durable product.

Cellulose ether is a valuable ingredient in cement extrusion due to its various advantages. Its high adhesion and lubricity properties enhance the workability of extruded products, while also improving green strength and promoting hydration and curing effects, resulting in higher yields. Additionally, its lubricity and plasticity make it an excellent choice for ceramic molding. Furthermore, cellulose ether produces ceramic products with a compact texture and smooth surface due to its minimal ash content. Overall, the use of cellulose ether in cement extrusion offers numerous benefits that can improve the efficiency and quality of the manufacturing process.
