High-viscosity, non-ionic cellulose ether offering excellent thickening and rheology control in aqueous systems.
Outstanding water retention capacity—critical for extended workability in cementitious and gypsum-based formulations.
Good compatibility with common construction additives including superplasticizers, defoamers, and accelerators.
Consistent batch-to-batch performance ensured by Dow’s stringent GMP-aligned manufacturing controls.
Powder form enables easy handling, dust-controlled dispensing, and rapid dispersion without lumping.
Cement-based tile adhesives (C2TE, C2TES1 per EN 12004).
Gypsum plasters and skim coats requiring extended open time and sag resistance.
Self-leveling underlayments (SLUs) for improved flow stability and surface finish.
Exterior insulation finishing systems (EIFS) base and finish coats.
Repair mortars where high water retention and cohesive strength are essential.
