Methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPMC) cellulose ether is one of the most important base materials used in mortar. It has good water retention, adhesion and thixotropic characteristics due to its unique molecular structure, which is to replace some of the cement and additives in the dry mix mortar and become one of its main ingredients. At present, cellulose ether with different specifications has been widely used in all kinds of dry mixed mortar products. Cellulose ethers are commonly used in dry mix mortars, including HEC cellulose ether, CMC cellulose ether, methyl cellulose (MC) cellulose ether, methyl hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPMC) cellulose ether, hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) cellulose ether and polyanionic cellulose (PAC) cellulose ether.
Cellulose ethers can effectively improve the mortar’s performance and enhance its properties. First of all, it can improve the strength of dry mixed mortar. Cellulose ether can form a large number of hydrogen bonds between particles, which can make small particles adhere to large particles, improve the co-structure due to hydrophobic effect, reduce the synergistic effect of particle movement and thus improve the strength. Secondly, it can effectively improve the workability and increase the thixotropy of mortar. Cellulose ether can adsorb water and reduce water loss in the early stage, making the mortar more workable, more sticky, reducing water demand, improving plasticity and influencing the air entrainment performance of mortar.
yibang cellulose ether can improve the properties of mortar very effectively and strengthen the properties of mortar. First, it improves the strength of dry mix mortar. Cellulose ether can form a large number of hydrogen bonds between particles, which can make small particles adhere to large particles, improve the co-structure due to the hydrophobic effect, reduce the synergistic effect of particle movement and thus improve the strength. Secondly, it can effectively improve the workability of mortar and increase the thixotropy of mortar. Cellulose ether can absorb water, reduce water loss, make mortar more operable, viscous, reduce water demand, improve plasticity, affect the suction performance of mortar.
In addition, the use of yibang cellulose ether can also improve the stability of dry mix mortar, storage, heat preservation and other properties. Cellulose ether can regulate the entrainment airflow of dry mortar, so as to improve the stability of dry mortar. Cellulose ether is also beneficial to the long-term storage of dry mix mortar because of its excellent water retention ability. Cellulose ether can also improve the heat insulation performance of dry mix mortar. If cellulose ether is added to the dry mix mortar, it can block the channel of heat flow by thickening the mortar, resulting in insulation.
In general, yibang cellulose ether has an important impact on the application of dry-mixed mortar. Cellulose ether can effectively reduce some basic components of the mortar, make up for the shortcomings of the base material, better enhance the strength, workability, water resistance and adhesion of the mortar, and thus improve the performance of the dry-mixed mortar.
