MEIKAI Cellulose

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC)

MikaZone™

Redispersible Polymer Powder

 Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is a white powder that swells in cold water into a clear or slightly turbid colloidal solution. It has the characteristics of thickening, dispersion, emulsification, film formation, suspension, adsorption, surface activity, moisture retention and protective colloid.

MikaZone™ HPMC act as thickeners, binders, film formers, and water-retention agents, are widely used for industrial applications. The applications areas include building and construction products, paints & coatings, ceramics, oil field chemicals, detergents, and personal care products.

Thickening Effect​
MikaZone™ Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) is widely used as a thickener in building applications as it prevents segregation and improves the cohesion of the formulation components. In dry mix mortar, the thickening power is related to their solution viscosity. The addition of MikaZone™ HPMC shows excellent stickiness to wet mortar. That can significantly increase the adhesion of wet mortar to the base layer and improve the sag resistance of the mortar.
Water Rentention
MikaZone™ Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) can effectively prevent too fast and low penetration of water into the base surface in cement-based products, allowing more water to stay in the mortar and participate in the cement hydration reaction. MikaZone™ HPMC has a stable water retention capacity in a wide temperature range, although changes in ambient temperature will affect its water retention capacity. Some special grades of products can still work well in high-temperature environments. In gypsum-based and ash-calcium-based products, MikaZone™ HPMC also play an important role in ensuring their open time and strength development.
Anti-Sagging Ability
MikaZone™ Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) are auitable for a variety of construction mortars. MikaZone™HPMC can significantly increase the thixotropic properties of the mortar system, which allows the mortar with excellent anti-sagging ability, thereby improving construction efficiency, especially when building on walls. The good sag resistance of the mortar means that there will be no slippage when the mortar is constructed with a considerable thickness; for the tile pasting project, it means that the tiles pasted to the wall will not be displaced due to gravity.
