Product Overview
Polyethylene Oxide MW 600,000 (CAS 25322-68-3) is high viscosity water-soluble PEO specially developed for dry-mix construction mortar industry. Compared with medium molecular weight PEO, this 600k grade provides stronger thickening capacity and superior water retention effect at low dosage. Uniformly dispersed in mortar system, the long polymer chains wrap inorganic particles to improve system stability. It brings smooth troweling performance, inhibits rapid water loss, extends construction open time, and enhances the bonding performance of mortar on base substrates. It shows good compatibility with cement, quartz sand, HPMC, starch ether and other conventional mortar additives.
Key Features
- Molecular Weight: 600,000, CAS 25322-68-3, white free-flowing fine powder
- High viscosity aqueous solution, powerful thickening effect with low addition amount
- Excellent water retention performance, prevent rapid moisture evaporation of fresh mortar
- Improve mortar lubricity and workability, deliver smooth troweling experience
- Effectively suppress bleeding, sedimentation and segregation of mortar slurry
- Good synergistic effect when compounded with cellulose ether to cut formula cost
- Stable performance under common alkaline environment of cement mortar
- Low impurity content, no negative influence on final mechanical strength of mortar
Main Applications
- Functional additive for tile adhesive, wall putty and dry mixed masonry mortar
- Thickener & water retention agent for self-leveling mortar, repair mortar
- Construction auxiliary for waterproof mortar and thermal insulation mortar
- Slip modifier for interior and exterior architectural dry powder coatings
Usage Guidance
Slowly disperse PEO powder into continuously stirred clean water to avoid agglomeration, prepare dilute aqueous solution in advance. Or directly mix uniformly with other dry powder raw materials. Typical dosage: 0.01% ~0.08% based on total dry mortar weight. Adjust dosage according to mortar formula and construction requirements. Carry out small batch mixing test before mass formal production.
