Properties of MK100E

MK100E exhibits excellent qualities in water retention, workability, and other aspects.

Typical applications for MK100E

Wall Putty / Skim Coat

The adhesion strength, water retention capability, flowability, and plasticity of wall putty are crucial performance requirements for creating a smooth and aesthetically pleasing surface. HEMC enhances the quality of wall putty through a series of chemical reactions.

Gypsum Plasters

Gypsum plasters are a common interior decorative material, typically used as surface coatings for walls and ceilings. This plaster is made by mixing gypsum powder and water, used to cover and smooth wall surfaces. During mixing, HEMC powder is added to the plaster to improve workability, adjust viscosity, and enhance sag resistance.

Repair mortars

Repair mortar is a material used to repair and restore the surfaces of concrete, brick walls, or other building materials. It can be employed to repair concrete structures, walls, floors, or other building surfaces. The addition of HEMC in mortar is aimed at enhancing the mortar’s water retention, workability.
