Cement-based Plastering Mortar
1. Improve the uniformity, make the mortar easier to apply, and improve the anti-sag ability. Increased mobility and pumpability to improve efficiency.
2. Methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose has high water retention, it can prolong the working time of mortar, improve working efficiency, and help mortar to form high mechanical strength during solidification.
3. Air infiltration is controlled to eliminate micro-cracks in the coating, resulting in an ideally smooth surface.
Sheet caulking Material
1. Excellent water retention of MHEC can extend the cooling time and improve work efficiency. High lubricity makes application easier and smoother.
2. Improve shrinkage resistance and cracking resistance, and improve surface quality.
3. Provide smooth and even texture, and make the bonding surface more cohesive.
Gypsum Products
1. Its high water retention can prolong the working time of mortar and produce high mechanical strength during solidification.
2. By controlling the consistency of mortar, a high-quality surface coating is formed.
Masonry Mortar
1. Enhance the adhesion with the masonry surface, and enhance the water retention, so as to improve the strength of mortar.
2. Improve lubricity and plasticity to improve construction performance. Mortar made by Kingsun HEMC is easier to apply, saving time, and improving cost-effectiveness.
Tile Adhesive
1. Make the dry mix ingredients easy to mix and do not produce clumps, thus saving working time and improving constructability, and reducing cost due to faster and more effective applications.
2. The efficiency of the tiling is improved by extending the cooling time. Enhance the adhesive effect.
Self-leveling Floor Material
1. Provide viscosity and can be used as an anti-precipitation additive.
2. Enhance the fluidity and pumpability, thus improving the efficiency of floor laying.
3. Control water retention to greatly reduce cracking and shrinkage.
Water-based Coatings and Paint Removers
1. The storage life is extended by preventing solid precipitation. It is compatible with other components and has high biological stability. 2. Fast dissolution without clumps helps simplify the mixing process. 3. Produces favorable flow characteristics, such as low sputtering and good leveling, ensuring excellent surface finish and preventing paint from flowing down. 4. Enhance the viscosity of water-based paint remover and organic solvent paint remover, so that the paint remover will not flow out of the surface of the workpiece.
