Effect of additives on HPMC self-leveling mortar

Self-leveling mortar is widely used in construction due to its ability to provide a smooth and even surface. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a common additive in self-leveling mortars due to its water-retaining and thickening properties.

Self-leveling mortar plays a vital role in construction projects that require a flat, smooth surface. These mortars offer many advantages, including ease of application, fast drying time and an excellent surface finish. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a commonly used additive in self-leveling mortars due to its ability to improve workability, water retention and bonding properties. However, the performance of HPMC-based self-leveling mortars can be further enhanced by adding additional additives.
