What are the effects of Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) in real stone paints?

Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is a kind of non-ionic,water-soluble polymer powder that is developed to improve working ability of dry mixed mortars.

It is widely used in Paints for interior wall & exterior wall, Stone paints and Texture paints.

In this article, let’s discuss the role of?HEC?in real stone paints.

Brief introduction of real stone paints

Real?stone paint is a kind of painting that decorative effect similar to granite and marble.?It?is mainly made of natural stone powder of various colors, and?is applied to the imitation stone effect of building exterior walls, also known as liquid stone.?

The building?using?real stone paint decoration,?has a real natural color, giving?persons?with harmony, elegant, solemn beauty, suitable for all kinds of buildings indoor and outdoor decoration, especially in the curved building decoration, vivid. There is a return to the natural effect.

Real?stone paint has fireproof,?waterproof, acid and alkali resistance, pollution resistance, non-toxic, tasteless, strong adhesion, never fade and other characteristics. It?can effectively prevent the external environment of building erosion, prolong the life of the building.?Because the real?stone paint has good adhesion and resistance to freeze and thaw performance, so it is especially suitable for use in cold areas.

Real?stone paint has the advantages of easy to dry, convenient construction and so on.

The effects of Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) in real stone paints

1.?Prevent splash?of the powder

Hydroxyethyl cellulose in the lacquer can prevent the lacquer powder transition scattering, increase the effective construction area, reduce the loss and environmental pollution.

2.?Be in good quality

With Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC),?real stone paint products?have?highly adhesion.?The quality of the products grade will?be?improved.

3.?Strong anti - penetration effect of topcoat

With Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), real stone paint’ s structure is tight, paint’s?color, luster are uniform when construction, and the amount of paint will be relatively reduced.

4.?The real?stone paints?made of hydroxyethyl cellulose has strong adhesion?and good compatibility with emulsion.The film is more compact, so as to improve its water resistance and effectively prevent the phenomenon of whitening in the rainy season.

5.?The real stons paints?made of?Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) will have a special network structure, which can effectively prevent the powder from sinking, keep the product stable in the process of transportation and storage, and achieve good tin opening effect.

6.?Construction is convenient

With Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) made of real stone paints under construction, there is a certain liquidity, easy to make the product to maintain the same color?when construction, at the same time, the construction skills are not high.

7.?Good mildew resistance

The special polymer structure can effectively prevent the invasion of mold.

It is suggested to add appropriate amount of antiseptic and mildew agent to ensure better effect.
