Features Of Dow WALOCEL XM 20000 PV Cellulose Ether

  1. High viscosity performance with excellent pseudoplastic rheology for superior sag resistance and application control.

  2. Outstanding water retention capacity, ensuring consistent hydration of cementitious systems and reduced cracking risk.

  3. Enhanced open time in tile adhesives and renders, facilitating extended workability without compromising bond strength.

  4. Excellent compatibility with common construction additives including redispersible polymer powders (RDP), superplasticizers, and defoamers.

  5. Consistent batch-to-batch performance enabled by Dow’s stringent GMP-compliant manufacturing process.

Typical Applications Of Dow WALOCEL XM 20000 PV Cellulose Ether

  1. Cement-based tile adhesives (C2TE, C2TES1 per EN 12004).

  2. Exterior insulation finishing systems (EIFS) base coats and finish plasters.

  3. Self-leveling underlayments (SLUs) requiring high flow and low sedimentation.

  4. Repair mortars and grouts demanding extended working time and controlled water release.

  5. Decorative façade renders and thin-bed mortar systems.
