Faq
Q:What are the primary application areas of HPMC in the construction industry?
A: HPMC is mainly used in tile adhesives, wall putty, cement-based mortars, gypsum-based mortars, self-leveling floors, and external wall insulation mortars.
Q:How to choose the appropriate HPMC variety?
A: When selecting HPMC, consider the specific application area and performance requirements, including viscosity, solubility, and water retention properties.
Q:What are the usage methods and precautions for HPMC?
A: The usage method mainly involves gradually adding HPMC to water while stirring until fully dissolved. Precautions include avoiding adding too much HPMC at once to prevent clumping.
Q:Can HPMC be mixed with other additives in construction materials?
A: Yes, HPMC can be mixed with various additives, such as redispersible polymer powder, cellulose ethers, and defoamers, depending on the specific application requirements.
Q:What are the storage conditions for HPMC?
A: HPMC should be stored in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated environment, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperatures.
Q:What are the precautions for HPMC transportation?
A: When transporting HPMC, ensure the packaging is intact and undamaged, avoid moisture and heat exposure, and do not mix with toxic or hazardous items.
