Additional Information
Applications
Function:
1.Enhances water retention--improved water retenion can protectcement and
plaster against poor solidification and cracking due to speedy drying and
inefficient mixing with water.
2.Workablilty--mortar plasticizing quality can be improved
which in turn will
improved the workability of painting and working efficiency.
3.Binding--Due to increased plasticizing quality
mortar can be a better binde.
4.Slipping resistance--Due to the thickening action of Cellulose Ether
the
slipping phenomena of mortar from substance to be bound can be prevented
more efficiently
