9 Применений RDP в растворе, не пропустите

Redispersible polymer powder (RDP) is made of polymer emulsion by the process of spray-drying. RDP in mortar can be mixed with water. After that, the polymer emulsion is emulsified and dispersed and becomes more stable. When the RDP is emulsified and dispersed in water, it will form a polymer film after the water evaporates, which is able to improve the various performance of the mortar. Different RDP affects the characteristics of dry mortars differently.

1.Functions of RDP in mortar

1.1 Improve the impact resistance, durability and abrasion resistance of mortar

The polymer powder particles can fill the mortar cavity, which enables the increasing of mortar density and improves the wear resistance of mortar. The mortar will be relaxed by an external force to avoid being destroyed. The polymer film can exist in the mortar system permanently.

1.2 Improve mortar construction and workability

There is a lubricating effect between the polymer powder particles in the mortar, which can make the mortar components flow separately, and the polymer powder has an inducing effect on air so that using RDP in mortar the mortar can be compressed to improve the construction and workability.

1.3 Improve the bonding strength and cohesion of mortar

As an organic binder, the RDP in mortar has high tensile strength and bonding strength on different substrates after forming a polymer film in the mortar. RDP in mortar plays an important role in the adhesion ability of mortar and organic materials or smooth surface substrates. The film-forming polymer powder is distributed in the entire mortar system as a reinforcing material to enhance the cohesion of the mortar.

1.4 Improve the weather resistance and freeze-thaw resistance, and prevent the mortar from cracking

RDP is a thermoplastic resin with good flexibility. RDP in mortar enables the mortar to adapt to the changes of external cold and hot environments, and can prevent the mortar from cracking due to temperature changes effectively.

1.5 Improve the hydrophobicity of the mortar and reduce the water absorption

The RDP in mortar can form films on the mortar cavity and surface, the film will not disperse again in water, which prevents the intrusion of water and improves the impermeability of mortar. Using special hydrophobic RDP in mortar, the mortar will have a better hydrophobicity.

2. Industrial Field

1. External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS)

Bonding mortar: ensure that the wall and the EPS board are firmly bonded with each other via the mortar to improve the bond strength.

Plastering mortar: ensure that the mechanical strength, crack resistance, durability and impact resistance of the insulation system.

2. Grouts

The grouts can increase the impermeability of the mortar and prevent water from intrusion. The grouts also have good adhesivity to the edge of the tile, and features of low shrinkage rate and flexibility. Tile renovation and wood plastered grouts:

3. Masonry Coat Mortars

Improve water retention of the mortar and reduce water loss for porous substrates.

4. Cement-based water-proofing mortars

Ensure the water-proofing performance and enhance the adhesion of mortar with the substrates, improve the compressive and flexural strength of the mortar.

5.Self-leveling floor mortars

Ensure the elastic modulus matching ability, bending resistance and crack resistance of the mortar. Improve the wear resistance, bonding strength and cohesion of the mortar.

6.Interfacetreating mortar

Improve the surface strength of the substrate and ensure the adhesion of the mortar.

7.Interior and exterior wall putty

Improve the bonding strength of the putty and ensure that the putty has a certain degree of flexibility to buffer the different stretch stresses generated by different substrates. Ensure good aging resistance, impermeability, and moisture resistance of the putty.

8.Repair mortars

Ensure that the expansion coefficient of the mortar and the substrate match well to reduce the elastic modulus of the mortar. Make sure the hydrophobicity, air permeability, and adhesion of the mortar.

9.Tile adhesive

Плиточный клей: provide high strength bonding and high flexibility for the mortar to adapt to different thermal expansion coefficients of the substrates and the tiles. Improve the ease of construction and increase work efficiency.
