HPMC, RDP et PCE : Des acteurs révolutionnaires dans l'industrie

Créé le 02.25

HPMC – The Workability King

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a crucial additive in modern construction materials, playing a vital role in tile adhesives, self-leveling compounds, gypsum-based plasters, and cement mortars. It improves water retention, workability, and adhesion, ensuring consistent application and enhanced durability. HPMC is widely used in plastering, wall putty, and cement-based coatings.

RDP – The Ultimate Strength Booster

Redispersible Polymer Powder (RDP) is essential in cementitious mortars, tile adhesives, waterproof coatings, and EIFS (External Insulation Finishing Systems). It enhances flexibility, adhesion, and mechanical performance, preventing cracks and improving long-term stability. The use of RDP in floor screeds and wall finishes is growing due to its superior bonding properties.

PCE – The Concrete Flow Champion

Polycarboxylate Ether (PCE) is a new-generation superplasticizer that significantly reduces water content in concrete while maintaining excellent workability. It is a game-changer in ready-mix concrete, self-compacting concrete, and ultra-high-performance concrete applications, ensuring superior strength development and reduced shrinkage.

Defoamers – The Secret to Flawless Finishes

Defoamers prevent foam formation in coatings, adhesives, and self-leveling compounds, ensuring a smooth and defect-free surface. They are particularly useful in cementitious leveling compounds, epoxy coatings, and waterproofing systems.

Gypsum Retarders – Precision Setting Control

Gypsum Retarders regulate the setting time of gypsum-based materials, allowing for better workability and application control. They are indispensable in gypsum plasters, wallboards, and construction moldings.
