Understanding Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

The construction industry also relies heavily on HPMC, particularly in producing additives for cement-based materials. It improves workability and adhesion, which are critical for the performance of mortars and concrete. The water retention properties of HPMC ensure that the material remains workable for a longer period, allowing for better application and finishing.

4. Water Resistance Additionally, the inclusion of this powder in mixtures enhances water resistance, which is vital for protecting structures from moisture-related damage.
