RDP Powder is a high-quality, water-soluble Re-dispersible polymer powder derived from ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) through advanced spray-drying technology. Specifically designed for the construction industry, it enhances the performance of cement-based and gypsum-based dry mortar formulations.
When blended with cellulose ethers and other additives, BosTech RDP Powder improves adhesion, workability, water retention, flexibility, and strength—making it an essential ingredient for high-performance mortars, putties, adhesives, and waterproofing solutions.
Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) is a non-ionic water-soluble polymer made from cellulose. It has extensive uses in various industries, such as paints, coatings, construction products, cosmetics, and oilfield chemicals, as a thickener, rheological modifier, binder, and stabilizer. Hydroxyethyl cellulose is readily soluble in both hot and cold water, resulting in high viscosities and good water retention.
BosTech HPMC (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose) is a high-performance, non-ionic cellulose ether widely used as a thickener, stabilizer, film-former, and water retention agent in various industrial applications. It is derived from natural cellulose through chemical modification, offering excellent solubility in both hot and cold water. HPMC provides outstanding rheological properties, improved workability, and enhanced adhesion in construction materials, coatings, and pharmaceutical formulations.
Methyl Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (MHEC) is an aqueous solution of a non-ionic cellulose ether obtained by treating natural cellulose. It has many applications in construction, paints, coatings, and tile adhesives owing to its exceptional thickening and workability properties. MHEC increases open time, prevents sagging, and enhances adhesion in cementitious compositions while offering viscosity stability and smooth flow characteristics. MHEC readily dissolves in water, forming transparent to slightly turbid solutions that function effectively over a broad pH range.
